MS150 Spinning Class

Yesterday I decided to try out a Spinning class at the YMCA, since the class was called "MS150 Training Ride" or something like that. I was up late Friday night, so I didn't want to get up at 7am to go ride with Bike Barn people, so I chose the 10:30am class instead. =)

The class definitely kicked my butt! About halfway through, I had to stop doing the "standing" part of the class. The instructor will call out for us to stand up in the bikes and work. It's excellent aerobic activity, but was just a little too much for me; I began overheating and definitely needed to tone it down a bit. But I just cooled down, got back on the cycle and started doing the drills sitting instead of standing. It was still a tough class, and I'm glad I went! I'll try to fit in a bit of Spinning during various points in my training, just to make sure I'm getting some good legwork in. =)
