RIDE, WALK AND LIFT

Even though this morning’s bike ride was only a 13 mile escort ride, riding alongside my wife while she ran/walked, at least I’m back in the saddle after days of health issues.

While my wife did one of her last long training run/walks for the upcoming Goofy Challenge in Walt Disney World, I rode alongside her passing her GU and Gatorade.  I love my escort duties!

All throughout the ride, my heart rate remained slightly above its normal resting pace of 60 bpm. Not exactly a workout by any stretch of the imagination, but the ride was good for my mental state.

This morning’s walk was a combination of walking to and from the gym plus 2.25 miles of treadmill walking.
Add them together and you've got 3.05 miles.  

For the most part, the treadmill walk was done at a 16:30 pace, whereas the casual walk to and from the gym was done at a pace well over 21 minutes per mile.

While inside the gym, I did a light series of weight machines, both upper and lower body.
