So today was in the 50's, sunny and beautiful. I decided today was the day to try to ride again. I knew it wouldn't exactly be a cardio workout, so I decided to run first then ride. I went down to Vic Thomas swamp, I mean park where I parked the car with Ritchey locked on the bike rack. I ran through Vic, Wasena and Smith Park, turned around and ran back. I ended up having to walk a bit (URGH) then ended my run short of three miles. I had gotten back to Vic, so I decided to ride. I changed shoes and shirts, added a helmet then took off. I rode to the sewage treatment plant and back. It was an awesome 11.4 mile ride. The only issue were the bumps and Splinty did not get along. I also used Bar Mits for the first time in a long time to keep my hands warm. They were almost too warm. I enjoyed being back on the bike again, but I've got a long ways to go! It's ok though because I've been knocked down before; but I will get up every time.
Look out ya'll - when these pins come out of my finger, I'm going to train harder than I ever have. My doctor has me out of work until 2/22, and my MHA program ends two weeks later. FREEDOM!!!!
Thanks for being my followers!!!
