winterbadgerRupert and I went out today. I meant to go out to Pax Nature, but somehow the morning got away from me, and I ended up with only the afternoon (Pax Nature opens at 8 and closes at 4, and it's an hour away with traffic, so...)
So I went out and rode down Sligo Creek Parkway a little way. All in all, it was probably ~45 minutes (my bike device only records the time the bike is in motion, which was 32 minutes), given how many stops for water and breathing I took. Definitely out of shape, as usual! (Though I think it's time to clean and lube the chain again--that might help.) Not exhausting, but I do need to do this more often (like, daily would be good...)
Someone went past with a group of other cyclists in the opposite direction and said, "Hey, it's Jan!" Not sure who it was (maybe Mark, the local librarian), but it's kind of nice to live somewhere where that can just happen randomly.
Stopped and talked to one of my housemates on my return. He and his lady are off to France next month and watching the strikes with concern. I certainly hope they won't last another month!
I have to take my exam this week. I have six hours for it; I might just take an afternoon off work... Just one more test and I will be all done!
