Daily Challenge 30: Biking!


This morning was kind of a big deal for me, because I went for a bike ride! The last time I was on the bike was over two months ago. I hadn't yet gone to the doctor, but I was having a few issues. After that I cut back on my activity leading up to the surgery. And since then I haven't felt up to doing much at all. Plus I've been taking it easy, listening to the doctor's instructions.

I wasn't sure how it'd go even getting on the bike. It was fine. No problem. I didn't strain. I didn't push hard. Nothing that would cause a problem. I went for a short, easy ride up to check my post office box and then took the short route home. Short ride, slow speed, and it felt great to get back on the bike!

I tried using a new app on the phone to track the ride. It doesn't pause when I stop (taking pictures, going into the post office) and I can't change the activity from running. I wanted to try it since it posts directly to Dailymile.com, but I don't think it's going to work too well for biking. There are some great iPhone apps out there but I'm stuck on Android for now. Oh well.

I need to remember to put the fenders back on!
