It was a good weekend. On Saturday, I spent most of the day riding bikes around with my oldest son. We cruised all over the place. We're fortunate to live by a beautiful lake so when we weren't pedaling, we were hiking. I didn't realize how out of shape I was until I got back. I was exhausted. I believe I was in bed by 8:30. I had a blast though.
Then on Sunday, I wiped the dust off the road bike and went for an hour ride. I loved it. I looked like a little kid on a new schwinn. I was smiling the whole time. On the first climb out of town my heart rate hit 185bpm. I can't even hit that high when I'm in shape but it felt good. My back is far from better but I'm just going to focus on the rehab and ride a few days a week.
I think the biggest factor will be not sitting at my desk so much. We'll see how that works. I'm excited to hopefully be on the mend.

huzzah! Back on the bike! Nothing like the feeling of the wind in your face. I am stoked for you, keep up all the other work and get that back healthy. I think I am going to be able to get on my spin bike within a week or two and I can hardly wait.
