I love to ride my bicycle

Reason 96? I love to ride my bicycle. There are so many things that I love about it, but mostly I just love being outside.

However, I do not like stray dogs. I am afraid that they are going to bite my leg off. Maybe not completely off, but it would definitely hurt. I need to buy some of that halt stuff. I hear it keeps them away... or at least disorients them for a while.

I rode today. Made it 10 miles. Not bad for the first time in a while. My rear hurts though! Story of my life.

Good News

Here is the good news: It is the end of the semester and I can be real about being healthy and training again. It is amazing how tiring reading and being at school can be! I will continue with my 100 reasons of why I love working out as they arise. I feel like it adds some spice. May 10 is my official first day of training. I will not only be attempting to start and finish p90x, but I will also be running, cycling and swimming. What do normal people do with their lives? I am convinced that maybe... someday... I will be like them. But first, I need some people to tell me what normal people do!

This is a really mellow post. I do not like that. Kind of hard to post when you are not regularly working out. Definitely fixing that tomorrow with a classic 10mi bike ride.

Get excited! I am!

98...

Maybe I can consecutively post for the next 98 days... doubt it.

The next reason (98) why I like working out is because it motivates me. Most people think of working out as something that you need motivation to do. I thoroughly enjoy it and when I finish a triathlon or a run or whatever, I honestly feel that I can take on the world.

It is hard to only say one reason... perhaps I should just list them all out. No good. I need to figure out the next 97 reasons. I will list them next time.

Fat triathlete rule vs. skinny people rule

Fat triathlete rule numero uno: If you go to the store in search of just one cookie, you generally come home with a candy bar and a whole container of cookies. And then you proceed to eat it all. Maybe eating healthy is not for me. Just kidding. I actually feel really horrible after I eat that much sugar, but about a month later I do it again.

Skinny people rule numero uno: The best workouts are pushing away from the table and walking away from the kitchen.

Who does that? That pretty much explains so much! Over and Out!

99 Reasons

I guess that I forgot that I had this blog... Whoops!

On to the 99th reason I love what I do:

Rain. I love running in the rain. I love swimming in the rain. I love (when I am not sliding around and having near death experiences) cycling in the rain!

In other news: I am planning on participating in at least 5 triathlons this year. I am also doing the color run and I want to do the route 66 marathon... but lets be realistic.

Also:  I am back to blogging. YAY!
