Can I Enjoy the Bike?

December 12th, 2008 by Shane Kenny | Filed under Running.

Tonight was cross-training night for the Marathon training.  The past 2 Friday’s I have come to hate the bike.  Not sure why but it just seems like an hour on the bike is like 8 hours in the dentist chair.  Plus, when I’m done my legs feel like jello.

Today when I arrived at the fitness center I was surprised to find a new bike.  This bike has a screen on it that displays a course that you ride through while tracking all the normal stats like RPM, distance, etc.  It is produced by a company called Expresso Fitness.

I rode it for about 35 minutes and it did not feel nearly as long and boring.  There is visual piece to keep you interested and I set myself a goal of lapping one of the other bikers on the course… and I did.

Now if they could just do something about my legs feeling like jello when I am done.

    That last bit will come in time. You’re working different muscles than you normally do.
