In addition to work today, I had a number of errands to run. My route took me these places:
- Home
- Post Office
- Coffee Shop
- Bank
- Work
- Doctor’s Office
- Coffee Shop
- Home
It turned out to be 43.5 miles in beautiful weather. I had to spend a few hours working, and some time getting poked and prodded by my doctor, but overall a good day.
As far as my crushing depression I was having before… It disappeared <poof!> last Thursday. I did discuss it with my doctor, but I really don’t want to take medication for it. As far as an existing medication causing it, I should get the lab results soon.
Oh, I weighed this morning. I’ve gained weight, as expected. My weight this morning was 211.2, which is about where I was in early February. So, I lost some progress again. I’m back on the wagon.
Glad to hear you’re feeling better! It sounds like you had a beautiful ride (even with the poking and prodding) — I’m a little jealous 😀
Thanks Asher!
I rode into work today also. I don’t have any other errands to run, so it’ll be more like 34 miles for the day.
Hi David,
I ran across your blog from a link on Michael’s Apertome/Ear to the Breeze blog. Sounds like we both have similar goals of riding more and losing weight (although I’ve not been terribly successful with either of those yet, but I’m still trying). Congratulations on your weight loss to date! I’m not logging as many miles as you are. (Still trying to figure out how to make time to fit in cycling before or after work). I’m in Louisville and ride as much as I can with some of the local groups, which I always enjoy more than riding alone. Keep up the hard work. I look forward to reading more on your blog.
Alice,
If you ever want to ride with some slower folk, The River City Cycling Society (link on left sidebar) occasionally hosts rides both in Louisville and Southern Indiana.
We stay together as a group rather than everyone at their own pace.
We don’t currently have a ride planned, but keep an eye out. I’d be pleased to meet you on an RCCS ride.
