A bit better


I got ready for a ride and walked around the house for a while, had a cup of coffee..filled up and chilled my water bottle...

Liam asked if he could ride with me, if I wasnt going too far. So we rode bikes around the bike trail once. It was warm but there was a good breeze and most of the trail is in shade. I used that ride as my warm up..(my heart rate didnt get over 110). After our ride together William and the kids went in the pool so I was able to go out by myself and just ride faster.

I listened to the latest episode of The Age Grouper for the first part of my ride then switched to Lady Gaga. It was warm - but not unbearable. I After 90 minuites my left pinky toe started hurting. I rode 2 hours 5 min. and my left foot was the only thing that had pain. My legs feel good.. everything was good, considering It's been a while since I've been on the bike for 2 full hours. My goal wasnt to push it..I just wanted to put the time in and start to build up my workouts.

I jumped in the shower when I got home...and got ready in a half an hour. I had promised the kids I would take them to the movies to see Despicable Me(cute movie). I didnt have time to stretch alot so hopefully I wont be sore tomorrow...
