On my first day of exercising for fun, I ran.
On my second day of exercising for fun, I biked.
Sound like a broken record of a triathle's life?
But, when I went running, I didn't have my GPS or my heart rate monitor. I just went out and ran up and down a few hills for fun.
And, for my bike ride, someone asked me, "How far are you going?" Normally, I know exactly how far I need to ride that day. My answer was, "I don't know, I'm just going up." It ended up being a fun 15 mile round-trip ride from the LA Zoo up to the Griffith Park Observatory.
Yesterday I tried a boxing boot camp class. I hadn't been to a boxing class in a couple of years, so I was a bit rusty with the punches. However, given my running and triathlon background, I had no trouble keeping up with the class physically.
Unfortunately, since boxing uses muscles that we don't use to swim/bike/run, I am still pretty sore. Even taking a deep breath strains a few muscles.!
I am enjoying my new exercise program, in spite of the soreness.
