I bought a bike!

Posted on March 8, 2014 By admin

I realised two things today. I haven’t ridden a bike in at least 10 years, probably more, and I am severely out of shape. I’ve been thinking of getting an e-bike as a way to ease myself in getting some exercise on my way to/from work.  I test drove one today and I’m sold! If all goes according to plan, I should have it in a couple of days :-) it was weird though. I’ve never ridden a bike with a suspension,  so that took a bit of getting used to. The kicker was going up a 30degree incline with more ease than walking it, and that’s a scary steep mofo of a hill!

Good news bad news

Good news: we had our 4-week personal training “evaluation” and we found that we could do more stuff, at higher impact, while feeling a lot better about it (i.e. not feeling like we’re about to puke on the trainer)

Bad news: the evil, evil woman is going to use that against us and pump it up a notch. Bitch.

(As a side note, we really like Liz, she’s a great trainer. We just like to complain about her).

Yaaaaaay, gadgets!

Xmas came early for me. Katy bought me a me tablet and I got it early so that I can bring it to Canada and use it to keep Bean entertained.

In other news, we had a visit from our new personal trainer tonight. I think it’s going to be a sound investment of time and money,  even if she did mention several times that it’s ok if we swear at her. That doesn’t bode well :)
