I’m starting the new year at around 218 lbs. While still technically obese (barely), I don’t feel that way any more. I feel like a different person. I ended last year at about 270 lbs. I hope to end 2009 at 175 lbs.
I’ve ridden my hybrid bike 150 miles in the last five days. I rode to work all three workdays this week, and every commute was great, except the ride home today, which I really did not enjoy.
I’ve ridden my two bikes a combined distance of 2238 miles for the year. Next year, my goal is ride at least 5000 miles, and drive less than 3500. That will mean riding to work nearly every day.
I was going to go on another midnight ride tonight to ring in the new year, but I had a rough ride home, so I’m going to sit with my dogs, watch The Dark Knight, and eat popcorn. Then I’ll get to bed. I won’t be drinking tonight.
Happy New Year!
