Another "light" week plus 12 miles

In my rush to finish up my work and pack to go out of town, there was no time for exercise on Tuesday. Wednesday's flight to the Toastmasters Convention in Connecticut left at 8:00am, so there was another morning wasted. There was no fitness center at the hotel, so I didn't get to do anything Wednesday night. I managed to get in a 30 minutes "hills" session in the parking garage on Thursday morning. The convention was back to back meetings and educational sessions, but I knew I was going to have squeeze my mileage in on Saturday on the hotel grounds or I wouldn't get it in this weekend. Luckily I discovered that a one day pass to the spa was available for $10, and it provided access to their fitness center. It was tough, but I did 12 miles on the treadmill with a 1 mile stationary bike ride in the middle.
