Anyone who knows me can tell you I have horrible time management. I consistently show up 5 minutes late to work. If I tell you I'll be there at 11:00, expect me closer to 11:10. Thanks to my awful time management I only had 40 minutes at the gym, not just to work out but also to shower and change.
Of course I headed straight to the track. I ran my first mile in 7:45 and then my second mile in 7:55. But here's where I went wrong. Instead of going for another mile I decided to hop on the stationary bike. Maybe I'm doing it wrong but I get nothing out of the stationary bike. To be fair, I only spent 10:20 and 3 miles on it. I had it set to level 10, though I'm not sure what the means exactly in terms of resistance. Maybe if I spent half an hour on the bike I'd get more out of it, but just sitting there is just as boring as running on the treadmill. I really don't think it's for me. I've tried the bike at the gym before, but I'd much rather be running. It's not nearly as bad as people think!
On the other hand, I can't wait until the snow and ice is gone so I can take out my new bike! There are so many bike paths around here I'd like to explore, and then some!
