Back to work

School started up again. Yesterday (I'm writing just after midnight) teachers reported back, and students return the day after Labor Day. Oh what fun...

Seriously though I am looking forward to getting back into a normal routine. I hope to make exercise occur at a normal and/or consistent time of day. I will hit up the coaches at the school to find out when the track and weight room are available so I can use them as well.

My riding will not be anything impressive since I only live 0.5 miles from the school. However, there is a way I can wind through the neighborhood to kick it up to one mile. What's the point though? One mile isn't even enough time to work up a sweat, much less burn any calories. So I believe that I will continue to walk to school UNLESS I am going to change clothes and go for a long ride immediately after school. I can see myself doing that in the winter so that I can take advantage of the warmest part of the day.

Until then, I'll just continue the power walks and hit the bike in the late afternoon when it gets cooler.

On a positive note, I had two teachers tell me that I look like I've lost some weight. Apparently it is not much yet, but every little bit helps.

Right now, I'm just trying not to stop.
