6 Months of Tobacco freeness on Feb 23, 2008

It is a fantastic thing to be able to declare. It will be, tomorrow. I'm excited and know other things now fill the void. I haven't counted the time as much lately as I did early on. Hell fire, 48 hou...

Will it ever be good enough? I don’t think so...

Guess I should find a few other hobbies to get interested in, 'cause I spend too much time riding, running, or typing about it. :-) BUT I am not smoking tobacco! I've attempted to jot down all of the ...

Some Randomness while I wait for my new bike

I get to pick up my new bike tomorrow after work! I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve. So, I'm sitting here feeling like a big slug. It's that time of the month (which by the way needs to end 'cause it...

Finally, some mileage!

I've been thinking of joining the Louisville Bicycle Club, mostly as a way to meet people that are cycling enthusiasts. This way I can learn more, but also start to build a network of friends I can ri...

Funny thing about doctors

I've never seen this one smile. I've tried over the years, just couldn't seem to get him to smile. I pride myself on being able to do that with people. I completely understand why. He is serious about...

Excited, happy and a little apprehensive

Okay, so the swelling is gone. Hallelujah! Still the slightest bit of tenderness, but I'll live. So I rode my bike 2 laps in the subdivision yesterday, which is about a mile and a half. Decided I shou...

I wish I wasn’t so outta shape!

Everything I see says "Patience". I'm trying! I know nothing happens overnight. I know I've come a very long way. I know anything worthwhile, worth having, takes blood, sweat, and tears. I don't want ...

Didn’t make it to the track this morning

But I put in 6.8 miles on the stationary in 25 minutes and burned 250 calories (that'll be good for a beer or two). Not as fast as I'd like, but I haven't ridden since Wednesday. I have to stop puttin...

I know I’m always going to be addicted to nicotine

and I hope I'm not fooling myself. This Chantix has been the best as far as getting beyond 3 weeks tobacco free. I've begun to use it as a crutch and I don't like that feeling. The side effects have g...

Nothing like testing yourself on a regular basis to make you humble

18 days tobacco free, riding the stationary bike for about 8 weeks, building time and intensity, I thought I'd try a run. Now, way back in the olden days (high school) I ran track and had been athleti...
