I Did It!!! 5 Borough Bike Tour!

Good for you! 42 miles...holy cow! I bet you are sore today.
I am working on being more active in my free time and trying to get the kids and hubby more active as well. I am also training for a big running race in June. Yesterday I went on a 6 mile hike/run up the canyon, even though my friend canceled on me. I was really proud of myself for going anyway and for running as far as I did. It ended up being glorious. The views were phenomenal and I felt great all day. Last night I convinced the kids to go on a long bike ride to check out a new park and we rode 4 miles.
I keep joking that I am on my way to becoming one of those Utahns I used to "hate"- the ones with a bike rack and a bunch of Ragnar Relay stickers on their car, those types of people who always have a smile plastered on their face because they just got back from climbing a mountain or kayaked to and from work ;) It feels good, though!

YAY!!!! for you! And here I was proud of myself for riding arond two blocks with my kids yesterday! You are an inspiration. I am very tired today from lack of sleep and have been trying to talk myself into getting up and going to ride my bike around 3 blocks this morning! I want to be able to actually go on bike rides with my kids this summer. Right now I am out of shape and overweight! After reading your post with this AWESOME accomplishment I am getting dressed and getting my big butt out there!! Thank you so much for sharing this, just what I needed this morning! KEEP UP the good work and keep up posted o n more accomplishments it is great inspiration for those of us who need that extra push! HAPPY MONDAY AND STAY SASSY!!!

A friend did that tour yesterday. She is super excited at her accomplishment too.

Wow! I did that so many years ago - thanks for bringing back great memories! :) Do they still go over the Verrazano bridge? I remember that being an endless climb into the wind.

Congratulations!! That would be an awesome tour! what's the next one on your schedule :)
