Well, the text is the truth, but these aren't photos of me. Shocking to learn this, I know, but it is true.
April 1: The forecast called for a possibility of storms on the way to work and a very strong likelihood of storms and heavy rain on the way home. Lesson learned: forecasts change during the day. The storms actually held off until after I was home, eating my dinner.
April 2: The ride in to work on April 1 was pretty windy. It was pretty crazy, too, on the way home on April 2. I always forget how strong the wind is in the springtime. I unclipped my right foot a few different times during the ride because I was convinced the side wind was going to knock me over. At one point, I think I was riding in place.
April 3: I decided to rearrange the furniture in our living room and apparently used bad lifting mechanics when moving the couch. This is disappointing because my back hasn't hurt yet this year while cycling, and I was thinking this would be the year of the un-sore back! I rode to the grocery store afterwards and was relieved to learn that my back didn't hurt any worse when riding and I bet it will feel way better tomorrow. So, I'm still optimistic about the riding season. But I think our living room will stay in its current state for the next five years. And this is a good reminder that my training is to fundraise for people who often are struggling with mobility issues and accomplish a lot more in their daily lives than I do.http://main.nationalmssociety.
