Life’s been busy, and I haven’t been posting. I have a few things I want to mention that I’ll write more about later.
- A health issue I haven’t said much about, but now I know what it is, and what to do.
- I’ve been horrible about eating out, and drinking beer. Today, I broke the trend, cooked, and ate better.
- I drove to work two days last week. I even paid $8.75/day to park *eek!*
- I had an appointment with my doctor in New Albany this morning, so I rode in the bitter cold to the appointment, then to the lab for blood work, then to work. After work I rode to the drugstore before heading home. 30 miles in 15-20 degree temperatures was a testament to my dedication, or insanity, you choose.
- I’m still gaining weight. I am weighing, but haven’t caught up on posting it here.
- After more diet & health research, I’ve started taking 5000 IU of Vitamin D per day.
- I put Christmas lights on my bike again this year. I’m sorry I don’t have pictures yet. I’ve gotten a lot of positive comments from random strangers.
- I put the studded tires on my LHT. It seems I was a bit premature, as the roads have been fine, but I really don’t want to change tires again already.
- I still haven’t started my upper-body exercises in earnest.
- My moods have been up and down. I feel great today, but last week had some hellish days.
Anyway, I’ll have more to say later. I’ve got things to do, then I’m going to bed.
It was really cold today. High of 15 or so here. Windchill of -3. Somehow my ride to work felt a lot worse than the ride home, not that I was colder, in fact I was overheating more on my way to work. Hvaen’t figured that one out yet. Good job riding 30 miles on a day like today!
