First weekend of Training

The weather finally cooperated to get on my bike. Yesterday was too wet to take out my new baby but today was good. Yesterday I decided to go for a run. I don't think I have run in over a month and my body did not respond well. Buddy was practically dragging me along. It was only three miles but it was a brutal three miles. Last night we celebrated my grandmother's and father's birthdays. My grandmother turned 96 on Thursday. Pretty impressive. Back to the ride. I went out for an hour this morning. The bike was great, although it needs an adjustment to the rear gears. It kept slipping. I am sure it is easily adjusted. I rode around Boxborough and had the expected struggles. Felt pretty good though. It is exciting to be begining such an important quest.

Day 1

Finally had a chance and the creative energy to write my PMC letter. This may have been one of the harder things I have had to write. Never having asked for money before, I was not sure of how to go about it. Now that this is done, I am hoping for a weather break to get out on the roads.



Show a little faith, there is magic in the night.
