2025 Mileage: 196.0
I knew that, for my ride today, I'd need to get it done early, as Michelle needs our car for much of the day. So I got it done VERY early (facilitated by Planet Fitness's 24/7 schedule). When I woke, about quarter to midnight, I simply allowed myself to slip out of bed, make my way quietly out to get dressed and then to the car, and was soon pulling up to their workout center at Briarwood (only about 3 miles from us).
I had considered doing a longer ride, but I allowed myself to settle for just an hour. When I arrived, there were only 3 other patrons there, and when I left (about 1:20), I was the only one. And during my ride, I listened to a playlist that Spotify suggested, based on my listening preferences as determined by my history -- an extremely nice collection of piano versions of hymn arrangements.
This gave me a ride of 12.5 virtual miles today, in 1:00.
Also, Friday I had thought I'd be unable to fit in a workout, but I was able to squeeze in an hour-long ride during the afternoon. However, I did not get a blog post written about it. During this ride, of 12.4 miles, I listened to music of Acoustic Eidolon, a husband and wife duo from Colorado that I like exceptionally much. They play a unique style of music that blends Celtic, Americana, world, and flamenco influences. Their music is known for its "new acoustic" sound. The players, Joe Scott and Hannah Alkire have become dear and treasured friends of mine online.
