July 19 Early Morning CPR Conditioning Ride

For some irrational reason I woke up at 5:45 am. Having learned that laying around in bed after I wake up just gives me a headache, I decided to greet the morning with a short ride.

Nothing fancy. Was on the road just a few minutes before 6 am. Did thirty minutes, 12.5 km (7.7 mi), 24.9 kph (15.4 mph), with a healthy, perky heart rate between 130-145 bpm.

I so enjoy seeing the sunrise. One of my daily goals is to pause and enjoy the sunrise and sunset of each day. (This practice started when I was driving long haul tractor-trailers. I would begin most of my days waking up at sunset. Then driving all night. And seeing that sunrise 12 hours later was a happy conclusion to my work "day/night.")
