Not having been on a bike for many years I decided to do a double whammy to test the bike skills and my fitness skills. Did a spin class last night at Pitt Street FF with my friend Neyvinka - it was good, and I could of increased my resistance, but boy did I sweat. Took a while to get used to the uv lights and kept staring at the Eiffel Tower picture glowing on the wall, but overall managed a good class and the legs were a tad wobbly getting up the stairs at the gym.
This morning I did my first bike/swim mix. Short cycle from my house to the Enmore pool (1km each way) and swam 4olengths (1.3kms). It is getting easier to swim the lengths, the first 10 are the hardest but I have found that counting backwards helps motivate me to get to 0. From next week I will add 5 lengths on a week and incorporate some alternative strokes.
Feeling a bit tired and having abit of a sore butt from the bike seats I am ready to continue on this journey to getting fitter and who knows, will ride to Centennial Park soon.
