Today started Bike to Work month and because I am the team captain for Les Lanternes Rouges, it was important that I dust off the Hindenburg and ride it into work. No excuses.

It was a great day for a ride. I rode through downtown on my way in and then back via Magnolia on the way home. The good news is that some of the hills I remember being pretty tough were not as tough but that could be because this is my second "recovery week" and I am doing no hard workouts. I am feeling a bit better than yesterday and am definitely on the mend...

I also got in an upper weight session and unfortunately picked the same time as spin class so I had to explain why I was not in class to Tija who gave me a very offended look through the window :). Wait till I tell her my coach is kicking me out of spin class all together...

Of course she was cool because Seattle Fitness is a big supporter of Bike to Work month and is giving commute challenge team members at my company free access to the showers through the month of May. LOVE them!
