So today I biked to work. I plan on doing so regularly from now on, except when there is snow. It's about 3km each way and most of the way to work is uphill. This is nice, because it is a relaxing easy ride on the way home. But to get more of a work-out of it, I decided that when I don't have something to rush home to, I'm going to bike towards the LANL back gate, as far as I feel up to, everyday after work and then turn around and head home. The beginning of that extra-credit trip is a long grueling hill up to the ski hill turnoff. Today I made it most of the way up that hill, adding an extra 2.5km round trip and a lot of vertical to my workout for today. Tomorrow I'm likely to skip the extra credit as I have ultimate right after work. But with luck I'll make it farther and farther down W. Jemez road each time and I'll get enormous and huge.
