Cycling update: hit 8.5 miles with a 14.3 mph average on Friday. Today I did 9 miles and hit my first goal of a 15.0 mph average. Felt really good, if a little wobbly after getting off the bike lol. Next goal: 20 miles and 17.0 mph average.
I'm getting stronger. I can feel it. It felt awesome getting out on the bike today XD
@ScribbleAddict great work! Training for anything or doing it for health and fun?
@gray thank you :)
Just for fun and health. I used to be a distance rider, but it's been a long time, because I set a very high bar in my teens (105 miles) and I couldn't get back into it.
Now the goal is just to do it regularly and make small goals for now to keep me motivated. After that it will probably turn into exploring or longer weekend rides, since it's not feasible to spend hours during the work week.
Do you ride or run or anything?
@ScribbleAddict awesome. More people should get out there, they'd feel so much happier!
I regularly compete in triathlons of various distances. Very recently completed my first Ironman event... Silly idea 😂.
Really looking forward to just having fun on my rides and runs again for a while.
@gray I agree! It helps my stress levels for sure. It's so good to get outside more too, especially as an artist.
Oh dang, that's impressive. Those sound brutal, but I bet they're fun with all the people. Everything is more fun with company. I'm not very competitive, so that's what it would be about for me haha.
Yeah, it's really great to do it for fun. Trying to get my wife to join me now haha.
