Getting the wind knocked out of you is the only way to
remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

Hi, K, welcome
and , no - I'm still hoping to just get to 1000/1000 !
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away...(unkown) • Go With The Flow • Thyroid Support Group
I'm cutting my run miles back to 1500 this year. Also increasing my bike miles to 3000 (ha, we'll see) this year. It's just a little trial to see if more bike less run would be equal to last years lots of run.
I'm really loving the cross-training. I feel less beat-up, though I find that I am still tired and have to pay attention to that until I better acclimate to the bike. I absolutely cannot wait for better biking weather, though. Even if the roads were clear there is too much road salt and sand that I don't want to subject my pretty baby to.
I use my bike to get about town (ride to the train, pulling the kid around, etc...) so, unlike previous years, I'm counting every mile on the bike, not just the high quality stuff.

When you start recording all your miles its surprising how many you cover.
I did a 48 mile ride yesterday but it was a bit windy on the way home luckily for most of the time is was sidewards to me, I just got home in time to miss the rain.
Old age is when you move from illegal to prescribed drugs.
Some time back someone here posted a link for this,

This website follows the 4104 mile Trans America Trail. You can record your activities such as running, riding or walking and it will show you on the map where you are, Someone must have drove the thing with a movie camera rolling because it will also show a photo of the place you are at down to the .10 of a mile. I did this thinking maybe a year, but it took 18 months.
Thanks Buzz I have set myself up. Its only accepts residents of the USA so I've put down Alabama as my home state as it was recomended by Lynyrd Skynyrd. So far this year I've got to Kentucky but there isn't a fried chicken in sight so I might be lost
In Great Britain its Lands End to John O'Groats which goes from the tip of Cornwall to the North East tip of Scotland a distance of around 837 miles depending on if you are using motorways or not.
100's of people do it every year by one means of transport or another, I did it none stop on a moter bike and managed to do it all in daylight.
People always do it South to North due to the prevailing winds.

With this trail I can feel like I've done something this year. I should be able to finish it this week. Dumb foot injuries.
