Today's bike ride did not impress me. I rode from Jo and Brian's through several Denver neighborhoods near DU, thento Washington Park and on to the Cherry Creek Bike path. Initially there were to many stops and too many times I had to look at the map to call it a "bike ride." This felt more like a "stroll." Consequently, I ended up riding longer than planned, and got more sun than intended (no burn though). I saw many other people outside trying to be healthy and a few shiny mallards playing in the river. After the first 45 minutes the temperature seemed to increase from a pleasant 75 to an unpleasant 79. The last half of the ride, I struggled to pedal in the heat I am not acclimated to. Once again, I felt like I could feel each and every tendon and muscle moving, urging me to stop and sit in the shade. Bheh. Oh well.8:30 AM start, 1:32 elasped time 18.9 mi, av 14.5 mph av HR 137, max 189
