bike and swim

Bike 8.3 miles. Swim 1K.

This marks possibly only the second and certainly no more than the third week in the nearly two years at this building in which I have biked to work all five days.

Because I am that compulsive, I did check. Four such weeks in 2003 (and several four-day weks); five so far in 2004.

I last drove to work on 27 August, when it was raining. (I understand that this is not a good excuse.) It was reason enough for RDC to bring up again the possibility of a second car. Driving to work in order that afterward I can drive to the gym where I have to go because I'm not biking to work. It's going to be an issue when darkness falls before I've got out of the gym, which will coincide with the pool (with easily portable gear: suit and goggles) closing for the year. But one of the reasons to belong to Gym Foofy is that it has enough equipment that we can go together after work, with me walking and taking the bus and RDC picking me up at work to go to the gym or my biking to the gym to meet him there and shove the bike in the car afterward.
