Odometer

Tonight before dinner I went on a ride with Carson and I pulled Alivia. Pulling an extra 40 lbs is not a cake walk. I got the Odometer on my bike to work and I now know that the track at the elementary is 1/3 of a mile. And I know that from home to the school is 1 mile. I like riding the track over there with him because it is safe with no cars. Carson is a tough kid to ride 1 mile to the school then 10 times around the track, and then a mile back home. He is a fast little bugger too. I gave him a half lap lead and tried to catch him tonight and after 6 laps I was about 100 yards behind him. Alivia loves it when we go fast. Fast for me when I pull her is about 14mph but that got me huffin and puffin and sweatin, and it makes the wind blow in her face. It was a nice ride. Plan is to ride with Carson tomorrow.

Amy and or Scott nope it isn't Bursitis in my knee it is arthritis and the doctor sees the calcification in the xray so makin fun of me for that is just as weak as my knee is sometimes. Because my knee hurts bike riding will most likely be my best form of exercise for the time being so I am glad the odometer works so I know how far I ride. Tuesday is my next weigh in.

  1. Don't know if you have access to a gym but I did the eliptical for the first few months until I dropped my first 30 lbs. After that I started jogging and walking and I up to the point where I mainly just run now logging about 30 miles a week. I do have a road bike that I ride when it's not to hot here in Texas. I look forward to the fall so I can ride more because my knees hurt as well and the bike is much easier on them. Good Luck
