Progress!

I am at $680! Pretty excited I made the first deadline, also excited to be that much closer to getting my bike. Considering what the weather has been like in Michigan the past few weeks (aside from today) I could have been training outside with a bike. 

I'm also starting to pick up my training a bit, my body certainly feels like it. My plan for the next bit is 3 days of spin class a week, with strength on the 2 days in between, especially focusing on abs and legs. The other 2 days of the week I will likely spend doing some other cardio. My body is taking a toll trying to get used to exercise again, but as I like to say, It hurts so good! Nothing feels better than knowing your body is getting stronger.

I have also started purchasing gear. Thus far I have obtained socks, bike multitool, bike computer, headlight, and my favorite, some Gore Bibs. Tonight during spin class I got to try out the Bibs and it was amazing. It certainly made sitting on a bike much more comfortable, however I will have to get used to the goofy short spandex look.

Overall, all is going well! The next few weeks will consist of mailing letters and more training, along with a pasta dinner fundraiser in February.
