20/20/20

We joined the YMCA in Franklin, Ma Not exactly close to the house but it will come in hand on winter days. Plus I want to get in shape. I would like to ride a century next summer. For those not indoctrinated to cycle speak, a century is a 100 mile race in one day. You are actually racing the clock rather than your fellow cyclists.

I see this 20/20/20 class. 20 min. on the stationary bike, 20 min. on the indoor track, and 20 min. strength exercises. Sounds like a real renaissance type of workout. Not so much bulking up and I can improve my form (or foaum as they say here). I had the first class today and my ass is kicked. I was the weakest one in the class. BTW I'm the only guy. The gals where nice though giving me tips on form and not laughing at me during the strength exercises when I couldn't do 5 military push-up so I opted for the knees on the ground type. Did I mention this kicked the shit out of me? On the track the set was to walk 1 lap, jog 2, sprint 1. We were to do 4 sets. I think I only skipped 2 laps, not quite sure I think I blacked out. It kicked me hard. I almost need help washing my hair.

This typing has further exhausted me, I'm going to....zzzzzz
