Gave my body a big shock today. As I mentioned before, I got myself into a bit of a rut and was having a hard time getting back on track. I put a few pounds on during vacation. Extra weight always makes me feel sluggish, but there is also no doubt that I am still purging the bad food and alcohol I consumed on vaca out of my system. It's kinda like when you put bad gas in your car, it takes a while for it to run normally again.
So today, after the kids got on the school bus, I made my way to the gym as I often do. I worked chest and triceps today but really piled on the weight today. I really wanted to wake my body up and get moving again. When it was time to do cardio I decided it was too nice a day to get on a stationary bike or treadmill. Plus, the energy in the gym was wicked low. Funny how that effects me. Sooooo... I went home and grabbed my mountain bike and took a 13 mile ride down the canal trail and back home again. I kept the pace up the entire time and made the round trip in about an hour. Oh, my legs are sore!!! But, I feel greeeeeat!
