3,000 Miles!!!

It may not sound like a whole lot, but for me it is a new record, and a momentous one at that.  My bike ride yesterday afternoon took me over the 3,000 mile mark for this year!!!  :-)  I am quite pleased, as this is double what my previous mileage record was!!!  And there are still days left this year to ride some more!!!  :-)

This was a very good year for me in many ways.  I have come to a new level of health and fitness in my life that I haven't had in many, many years now.  I weigh under 200 pounds for the first time in nearly 20 years!!!  I now eat well, exercise regularly, and have developed a love and passion for bicycling.  I rode a lot this year, and have enjoyed it so very much.  I am already looking forward to what next year has in store for me as far as cycling goes!!!

January will mark my two year anniversary since I started taking back my life, and began to get healthy.  Since then, I have lost 90 pounds!!!  I feel so much better, and have so much more energy.  I am no longer ashamed of myself, or how I look.  I enjoy fitness and being active.  I love being able to participate with my kids.  For me, getting my physical health restored helped me to have better mental health, Spiritual health and emotional health!  :-)

I am very hopeful that I will log at least as many miles in 2011.  Really, I would love to add even more miles!  :-)

Yes, I am happy.... healthy.... and I am a bicyclist!!!
