Grabbed the bike this morning and hit the park. Did 3 big loops at 1.3 miles each (combined up and down hill and some flat) as well as 15 or so small loops (flat and only .4 miles each). Both loops are paved. I rode home and changed then walked back to park and ran the small loop 6x in about 30 minutes. My whole workout, with the transition, stretching and walking home to cool down was 1hr and 27 minutes long. I felt ok during the run part and was doing 30 second sprints for the last 3 loops. These got me a little winded and my heart rate was at about 87% and one time it measured at 92%, but my body catches up really quick and I recover within a minute (I am paying attention to this).
Had I known in advance that the small loop was .4 miles long I would have kept going and toughed it out. Oh well - there's always tomorrow... Monica had a little lunch ready for me as she was right in thinking I would be starving when I returned - I was... I am now having a protein shake to accompany the great turkey burger I ate. Gonna sit and rest a bit before the housework begins...
