Training Log – July 10, 2008
Posted by cyclingforgoodness on July 11, 2008
So we got to Austin and had an amazing experience with a completely uncooperative agent at Dollar Rental Car. Long story short I walked over to Hertz (after 20-25 minutes of waiting for our; it’s being washed and will be here soon Dollar rental car) and rented a full-size car for $45.00 less than Dollar. What does this have to do with cycling training, you ask, nothing.
But after a lovely dinner at South Congress Cafe (highly recommended) and lazing about in the motel room, I went down to the La Quinta fitness room and found a stair climber, elliptical trainer and a universal weight machine, and got in an hour of stair climbing and a bit of weight lifting. The room was as hot inside as it was outside; it must have been 90 degrees (but no humidity). I kept telling myself; self, this is what it will feel like bicycling across the Negev!
