I Surrender

I love to run, but my knees have turned their back on running. I have grown tired of the constant pain after running only 3 miles. I gave it a year for them to be OK with running after the dreaded knee surgery and they continue to tell me NO RUNNING!! I surrendered to my knees and bought a new bike. I love to ride my bike. I have almost no pain after riding up to 10 miles. This is an awesome feeling indeed. I have one thing to say about the bike riding. It will work your legs like nothing else. As my friend Runner Susan would say...you can't stop and walk when you are tired on your bike or you will fall over!! Lesson learned! It is truly a great leg work-out and your glutes will be screaming as well. When you got a little junk in your trunk like me then that is a good thing.

My first bike rally will be this Saturday the 4th for the http://www.tourdeargyle.com/ bike rally. Runner Susan and I signed up for the 7 mile family ride. Please join us if you feel the desire. I am sure it will be a great feeling to ride with a group at a pace in which I can keep up.

Show up and make it count!
