    10/4: another 10 miles on the stationary bike, for a total of 42 miles thus far.

    And an NSV at the gym today (populated almost exclusively by college kids): I was made an official member of the "IRON A** CLUB" by four buff college boys for staying on the WORST bike in the place for a full hour. Made me smile!

    Another 12 stationary bike miles this morning (I'm working on getting those out of the way because it's my least favorite activity of the three)

    Totals: Biking 54 miles, Walking 6 miles, Swimming 0

    [My REWARD for finishing the biking miles is to go swimming!]

    This sounds like fun! Please do this again in November so I can join. Quick question: there is no place for me to swim. What would you guys reccommend as a replacement? If I get to join next time, I'm planning on using a stationary bike in the gym (too cold to ride in November) but can't seem to work the swimming piece out.
