5k run, 40k bike!

Today was pretty much a PERFECT day, despite my immense blogger/template issues!

It started out, by being surprised with breakfast in bed courtesy of Chef Andrew. French toast, made just the way I like it.

I himmed and hawed about what to do for a workout today. With the sun shining for the first time in a week, I decided to go for a run. Andrew also convinced me to go for a bike ride, so I did a quick 5k with Jersey… as I knew I’d be in for long bike ride.

A little history about Andrew  and I biking together. To be blunt, He loves it, I hate it. A few years ago, we decided to do about a 100k round trip tour out to a town just outside of Ottawa. He biked like a crazy man, and I huffed and puffed the whole way to keep up. He had a mountain bike which was great for the off road trails. I almost died several times on my hybrid when I’d hit loose gravel at high speeds. The icing on the cake: It was a bright sunny day…Andrew was in charge of applying the sunscreen. Needless to say he missed a few spots.

I STILL have the scars 5 years later to remind me!

I will say though, I really enjoyed today. I think its because I’ve been doing a lot of spinning classes. I tend to hate things I’m not good at… so maybe thats why I hated biking.

When all was said and done today, we biked almost 40k in just under 2 hours. I don’t think I’ll have any scars after today… but even my HANDS got sunburned. CRAZY!

When we got home, I set up shop in my outdoor office to do some work on the challenge.

Supper tonight was homemade pizza, zuchinni boats and a side salad.

For desert: vanilla frozen yogurt topped with strawberries, half a banana and a teeny tiny bit of chocolate sauce.

  

All and all… a PERFECT day! :)

The week 1 results will be published soon, and be on the lookout tomorrow for this weeks Weekly Challenge!
