At the beginning of May, I'm doing a 30mi bike ride with some friends in support of CASA*. I think it just might kill me. If the ride was 30 flat miles, I think I'd be ok. But there are hills. And while some hills may be small, they're still hills!!
So far, my knee is holding up with the training. (knock on wood) But it's about to get serious and I hope I can do it.
I go back and forth with wanting to make sure I'm healthy/not focusing on my weight and stressing about what I look like. Logically, I know that being healthy is most important. But I also know that with less weight, my heart won't have to work as hard when I exercise. Either way, I've got some work to do.
My current plan is bribing myself for losing weight. I'm in desperate need of a pedicure and I want some $$$ shampoo. Silly, I know. But both are wants, not needs and I'm hoping it'll help me drop some weight.
