Mixing It Up

Today:
Purpose:  Cross Training
Distances: Running - 6.5 km, bike riding - 9 km
Running time:  36' 00"
Running rate:  5' 32" per km
Weather: cloud, bit of sun, temp 21 degrees, humidity 45%, wind ENE 15 kmph
Week:  43.3 km, Nov:  279.95 km,  Year:  4028.1 km

I'm trying to mix up the training to prevent any repetitive injuries, and to keep the mental side positive. It's going to be a long next 6 months.
Today, I rode the bike to work at 6:15 am as usual. Instead of a slow jog home and back to work, I ran down to Pine Is and back to work, distance 4.45 kms.
Then, on the bike and ride home at a comfortable pace. Lunch, then car back to near the road entrance to Pine Is. Leave car and run down to the beach, stand in river for 10 minutes, then run back to the car, distance 2.05 kms.  Back to work, shower & all is good.
A relaxing few hours on a nice day. The mixing up the exercise was better than doing nothing, better than a long run, and without stress.
Should do more of these, especially during the nice weather of summer.
