HIMALAYASX2012 / EXPEDITION OF WESTERN CHINA / NEPAL / INDIA // training schedule results

Present weight: 86kg, 

completed 20km treadmill, 

190 minutes,

 15000 calories burned (hard to believe! it),

 9-11% grade,

 pulse 123 regular BPM,

 cardio training for the HimalayasX2012 ^^

...I was asked by Krishna Bhattarai of Nepal (nice guy!) why the X after the Himalayas?

 I explained that I will have crossed over 6000km of the Himalayas in different directions when I complete the expedition project by bicycle. It's fun and a great goal.

 Gangneung, Gangwon-do, South Korea

 Reservoir Lake, Gangneung. My favorite winter location for Ice Bicycling.

[vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/36149415 w=608&h=342]
Gangneung, Gangwon-do, South Korea has a series of small lakes created in a reservoir area. For the first time, I set out to cross all sections of these frozen lakes, the temperatures dropped to -10 Celsius and the sun was out, it was an amazing day to adventure cycle!Music: Kasabian (Club Foot) and Contemporary Chinese.Adventure blog + links to explorers:
http://korean-world.blogspot.comI support IDEAS - Intestinal Disease Education & Awareness Society In partnership with ETE - Education Through ExpeditionsPeace from South Korea!

I completed some sub -20 micro adventures this winter too

Related Link Sub-24 Hour Micro Adventures:  South Korea Micro-Adventures 

Training has gone solo these days, lost my one riding partner in Gangneung

On another S24O (Sub 24-hour Overnight) Micro Adventure in the fall of 2011  I came across two mountain cougars, rare but lucky to be seen near Jeongseon, Gangwon-do, South Korea

Success and failure, triumph and tragedy: all circumstantial parts of our life, learning and human exploration.

My Personal Mantra: 

Prepare for future expeditions, 

one day at a time, it's all you can do. 

Never impossible, you're just trying it out.

Never stop overcoming, challenges are always ahead.
