This week, I went to the Broadmoor Hotel Resort http://www.broadmoor.com/colorado-springs-resort.php, in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Almost the full day was filled with meetings and meals, so there wasn't much time to enjoy this beautiful resort. I did set my alarm and asked for a wake up call at 5:30 am, each morning so I could get my exercise in.
Steve and I are signed up for the Amtrak in September again and we need to get the riding in. I was concerned about having a whole week off the bike.
The resort had a lake with a walkway around it which was about .6 of a mile. I jogged it on Tuesday morning twice and my friend Beth joined me for a 2 miles walk on Wednesday morning on the back side of the resort. The resort was at 6,000 feet and I didn't really feel the difference until I tried to jogged.
On Thursday morning since we didn't have meetings and my flight was leaving mid day, I signed up for 50 minute spin class. I was the only one in the class, which meant I couldn't just sand bag because the instructor was watching me the whole time. I did get 11 miles in and my face was red for several hours.
I'm back home for a week before another trip to Minnesota. Hopefully tomorrow and Saturday we can get in some rides and get on with our training.
