8.9.15 Sunday Sunday Sunday!

Took a friend of Mrs Bears out for a 15 mile bike. Her second time on a roadie.
A bit uphill, a little down, and some flat - but never stopped smiling for an hour. I love this sport.

It was a beautiful day here in Northern Ontario. Spent 1.5 hours in a local lake.

Showed up at the gym to find that they'd switched the time of the a.m. cycling class; it was finishing instead of starting. Since the kiddo was already in the day care, I tried out one of the new Expresso bikes in the cardio area. They have big video screens that play images of the route you're riding, and change resistance as you go up and down the hills. Kinda like playing a video game, except it tracked my HR while I sweated buckets. Not anything like a real ride (or cycling class, for that matter) but it was somewhat entertaining. Next time, I might try the route that lets you hunt dragons...

Geez....Wish they would install outdoor showers around here. (They do have sprinklers on sometimes during dry season, but the water coming out is warm!)

AM: Made it to the gym for 3K of swimming, plus about 30 minutes of lifting.
PM: Epic "outdoor showers" commenced. 2 hour indoor trainer ride watching the deluge.

Rest of day dealing with feline "accident"--my Big Boy is terrified of thunder and lightning and was cowering under the bed so long he couldn't "hold it" anymore. Poor kitty!
