On the Downward Slide!

I hope everyone had a good Hump Day - yay,  the momentum is picking up towards the weekend!!!
I had a good day today, but I'm surprised -- I wasn't as sore today as I expected to be after riding yesterday!  My glutes were a bit sore, and of course I have my bike-butt to deal with.  And despite that, I got back on the bike tonight!!  (Oh, I gotta get me some of those biking shorts/pants that have some cushioning in the crotch - ouch...)  But I did it anyway, and I rode for another 8.2 miles today.  Yay, me!

I also discovered a really cool site where I can figure out the mileage of the route I took, in the absence of a cycleocomputer (which will change this weekend):  GMap Pedometer.  It's pretty easy to use, too.  Zoom in to your local area and find your starting point, and click on Start Recording on the left.  Then just double-click along the route you took/are taking and it will calculate your mileage.  Pretty slick! 

I took in 1408 calories and 112 oz. water, in addition to my usual coffee, and rode for 40 minutes.  Pretty good day, but my butt will appreciate the break from riding tomorrow - I do have my dance classes to teach!  :D

G'night, all!
