I found myself with all my gear from camp this weekend (more on that in my next post) at a building in Hoffman Estates the better part of the day today. The building is located across the street from a Cook County Forest preserve with paved paths.
Despite no bike on my schedule today, I decided to just ride for pleasure over my lunch hour. I felt it was important to bring it back to what's important and just enjoy a bike ride. Albeit I did wear my heart rate monitor to ensure I did not work too hard and I kept track of the time. I wanted to make sure I was keeping low heart rate zones so I didn't overdo it (I really don't EVER over do it!!).
About 45 minutes of a nice sunny ride outside and I got back into my car to drive to my next appointment. Believe it or not I did the car change of clothes! Since there was a decent headwind I really wasn't stinky or sweaty and no one was the wiser!!
After work, I drove back downtown to check in at my gym. I am only 12 visits away from getting my sign-up fee returned. I am sure I will be able to do this before we leave for India!
