Speedy Work

Last night I did a pretty quick 10 miles on the bike - 31:48. Well that's speedy for me. :-)

I was riding along with U2, or at least listening to the new album. While I was doing that, I found it odd that people would get on the bikes for short time. Do you really get a workout if you are in the bike for a couple minutes? And what's up with the people who are reading while on the bike? That just looks wrong to me.

I thought it was a good cross train though. Today the goal is a 4 mile run.

I don't know about the people at your gym who get on the bike for a short period, but when I do it, it's as a warmup for a strength workout.
5 minutes on the bike is a good way to get the blood flowing...

I see. It just seems like they hopped on, then off. I am sure that is what they were doing.
