Yesterday I went for a jog around Hyde Park, Green Park and St. James Park. Passed Buckingham Palace which brought back a very happy
memory of nearing the marathon finish line the week before; throngs of people crowded along the sidelines cheering us on to the finish line. This morning Claudia and I did 4 laps around Regents Park on our bicycles. We went early and there was very little traffic on the roads. London is peaceful on Sunday mornings, and the parks are green and lush this time of year. My legs have recovered from last weekend's run. My arms, however, are still very sore from doing a 'body pump' class on Wednesday. Hadn't done a weight workout in months. My triceps have really atrophied. Back of the arms don't get a workout from running. So now it's time to rebalance my workouts with some cardio, some strength training and some flexibility. My health club offers classes for all these areas. I love that fact. |
