Well we went up to the cottage for the weekend, so there wasn't much excersising going on, but it was nice to spend some time with the family. Got home on Sunday and did the normal domestic stuff (Sunday is laundry day, and with a wife and 5 kids it usually takes me a significant amount of time to get it all done), but I was able to spend a little while in the afternoon continuing my search for a gym that would sell me a 1 month membership. I don't know why this is a difficult concept for gyms to do, but I guess they all bank on people signing up for a year, and not using it after a month. After going to 4 different places, and almost having to finalize with a 3 month, I stopped in at Premier Fitness (in the old Deville's for those of you in the Whitby area). Didn't have time to work out yesterday, as I had to get home to finish the laundry, but did get signed up with the intention of going before work on Monday.
So this morning, I got up at 5:45 and off to the gym I went. I had planned on doing some time on the bike as my main focus is on cardio. I ended up spending 45 minutes on the bike at a pretty good speed and heartrate. I am not sure if I can rely on the distance the computer told me I went, as I did 8 km last Monday and felt like I was going to die on a real bike, and this one said I did 30 km in my 45 minutes, and I feel really good. In any case, after the pain I was in running last weekend, I didn't want to kill myself again (as I still have to go into work afterwards). Overall I was happy with the workout. Will be back again tomorrow and have to push things a little bit harder.
