THE CNN WORKOUT

I have been watching campaign coverage on CNN when I do a half hour on the bike in the morning.

It is interesting that when there was little or no campaign news, I had trouble getting my heart rate up high enough.

By this I mean that when you get older and stay in cardio shape you have to 'hurt' more to get an elevated heart rate and so it is unpleasant.

Not so on good political days. A noisy Republican surrogate or candidate can get my heart rate up about 5-10 points.

Some of them, particularly Rudy G. who was on this morning can get me so stoked that I have to turn the 'effort' level down a notch. He had me over 120 this morning.

So he is good for something.

Another drag queen.
