Gym is Open (Thoughtful Tuesday) 8/5

After yesterday's fire, I was afraid today would be "Toasted Tuesday"!

The gym is open.  I'm going to the gym to do treadmill and probably stair climber.  The weather promises to be cooler today, so I may take a nice walk outside as well.

What did you do to move your body today?

Nothing for me today either.  I slept in to be well rested for my Calculus final at 5pm tonight.  I was still up at 7AM  only 30-45 minutes later than normal.  Old habits die hard.  Wait, did I just say I had a habit of exercising?  Wow, that's too crazy!

I'm back to my training schedule, although it's slightly modified from my last go-round. I do have one more adventure race, but it's only a 6 hour so I'm not going to concentrate on training for that too much. I do have a few 14ers planned this month so this morning was climbing time - I did 40 minutes on the treadmill, 4mph at a 15% climb, then ran for about 5 minutes (that's the first time I've run in a while!) Then I headed over to the stairmaster and climbed that for about 15 minutes. I was nice and sweaty by the time I was done!

The big thing I'm preparing for is a 100 mile bike ride on Labor Day - my fun mentor/trainer convinced me to do this trail in Moab that is suppose to be beautiful and fairly challenging to do in one day (it's called The White Rim Trail). So, I'm going to be biking A LOT this month. At least it isn't as hot as it has been - that would be miserable!
