Today was a gorgeous day of sunshine and warmth. Yesterday I got the second clipless pedal installed on my beautiful bike and today I did a leisurely trip through Eleven Mile canyon, then a quick trip to Florissant and back resulting in an exhilarating 30 mile ride. I’ve been letting Clay use my bike, and the pure adrenaline bliss has begun the beginning stages of converting him into a biker. After that I spent time relaxing in the sunshine reading “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” and listening to “Zombieland” as Liz watched it on her portable DVD player.
Yesterday I finished my ISP hours with a “kids in the kitchen” event, held by the Junior League that taught kids about exercise and healthy eating. It was a fun event. We were stationed at the fruit table, right next to the smoothie table. So we spent time chopping fruit, and enticing children into making “fruit kebobs.”
We have one more week here at our beautiful Lake George home before we travel to the Cimarron Grasslands in Kansas. This past week we have been cutting and piling trees that were blown down in a tornado last year, and the last part of the week we worked with the Woodland Park fuels crew because Russ had a fews days off. We’ve been doing PT at Woodland Park as well, utilizing their weight room and the P90X workout videos. The Plyometrics DVD was particularly challenging, and the night after that I went on a killer bike ride, but my thighs and butt were sore for DAYS!
