Working for the weekend

Well, spin class at Blue Sky went about as well as I expected it to: it was a lot of fun, and because I did everything I could to make it challenging, I felt reasonably worked out when the class was over.

I also wowed anyone who was looking (probably not anyone) with my mad roller skillz: riding without hands, doing the out-of-the-saddle efforts, and one-footed drills during the cool down. Like I said, I'm not sure if anyone actually saw my antics, or cared, but I was impressed with myself. I'd also like to think that I gave the rest of the class something to aspire to. Also, I was wearing my pink Anthem women's team bibs, just to sure that everyone noticed me, and that I looked extra ridiculous. Me, an ego maniac? Never. Seriously though, the women's bibs by Champion Systems have an identical chamois to the men's bibs, and the fit is close enough for me.

More likely, everyone was thinking: "who's that guy showing off in the corner?" Whatever. It was fun to do my hour-long spin with some company, it definitely went by faster than it ordinarily does.

So that was fun.

Tops from the week:

3) Spin class, but you already knew that from reading above.
4) Thanksgiving, the best of all holidays, is nearly here!
5) My 25th birthday is nearly here too! Call if you want to party Saturday night...

Bottoms from the week:
1) Razor burn... oops.
2) It's only going to get colder.

5) There was no need for it to rain tonight. Seriously.
