My wife was scheduled for a 10-mile training run in preparation for the upcoming Goofy Challenge in Walt Disney World, so I rode alongside her while she ran, handing her the Gatorade bottle on command.
We began the ride/run at 5:30 in the morning, so I had all of my bike’s lights blinking so we wouldn’t be run down by the mall’s security vehicles.

Included in the escort ride was one stop at Chick-fil-A for a potty break and then another potty break behind an old rusty dumpster. Thank goodness for open fast food restaurants and partially hidden dumpsters.
While riding and running, we marveled at the full moon in the western sky shortly before sunrise. The moon offered enough light for us to safely maneuver our way around the mall’s dim parking lot.
All toll, I rode at a pace that resulted in an average heart rate of 68 bpm. Woo hoo!! I must have been asleep at the wheel, or in this case, the handle bars.
I’m surprised that I burned 702 calories. Maybe it was the brutally difficult elevation gain totaling 32 feet.
In the above photo, my wife is acting silly coming out of Chick-fil-A.
