This is going to be a shocker, but I actually rode my bike. Can you believe it?!? In fact, my bike computer says that I went 26.2 miles today. Not too shabby, eh?
Most of the credit goes to Cindy who invited me to meet up with her on the bike path this morning. That's all it took to get me off my rear and onto my bike. I was a little apprehensive on the way to our designated meeting spot when I realized how windy it was. However, I rather enjoyed the whole experience and hope we can do this more often.
After arriving home, it became obvious that today's ride totally wore me out. I didn't feel like doing much more than sitting on the couch. I guess that's what happens when you take a long break from cycling and decide to pick it back up on a windy day with a nice little 25+ mile ride.
Oh, and I must have been too tired to think straight this afternoon, because I went ahead and registered for Elephant Man. Yikes! Guess it's time to get serious now...
Elephant Man - sounds great.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the training, you've inspired me to get back on my bike. Soon.
ReplyDeleteWoW!!! 26.2 miles?!? Awesome job Lisa!! ;D ;D
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I am jealous :-)
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like its going to be easier this year! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteYAY! Back in the saddle!! It does wear you out and you don't even realize it until an hour later. Great job! And woot on Elephant Man!!
ReplyDeleteThere you go again -- you see a problem (dropping the bike) and you fix it. Your self-analysis and them immediate problem-solving are inspiring. Go, Lisa!
ReplyDeleteGREAT workout! And Elephant Man looks like a fun race -- nothing like signing up to keep the motivation going!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the ride, too! Let's do that some more :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am so glad you signed up for the Elephant Man!!
Great bike ride(in the 25mph wind no less!). I know you will totally have fun at Elephant Man.
ReplyDeleteThe tri sounds great.. and was it a coincidence you rode 26.2 miles?!
ReplyDeleteYa-ay!
ReplyDeleteWell done you!
