To be more correct, five (5) milestone! Did a cycle routine (random hill) at an easy level but for a scheduled 15 minutes. In that time I maintained an average speed of 20.9 mph. I pushed myself to complete 5 miles before the timer elapsed which, I might add, required me to really push hard. Little did I know the program (routine) also include a two (2) minute cool down period. But the accomplishment was 15+ minutes on the bicycle without major ass pain.
Woohoo!
I'm still doing strength training at each visit. I'm also getting into a good job of rotating the number of daily gym visits. For instance, today I did only one visit. Tomorrow I'll be going twice. I think Wednesdays will be my regular day off no matter what.
Additionally I've gotten the missus to start joining me. She'll need time to acclimate to regular exercise as I did but I think she's looking at me as a symbol of encouragement. Or maybe it is feminine defiance in the face of male accomplishment. After all, "anything he can do I can do better" is not a thought far from the core of her being. It is that backbone of hers I love the most - well the rest of her body is kind of hot as well so now I'll just take that back. (PS: She doesn't read this blog btw!!!)
