I need a nap...
My training goal has been met!!! I wanted to be able to do at least 20 miles (since that's the length of the trail) once before the big day. I figured if I can do it once, I can do it more than once. It was 78 degrees, wind gusts up to 24 mph, I felt every bit of it, and I conquered. I also need a shower :-)
AND...I got hit by flying rocks, and have bruises. The only thing I can figure is that a car kicked up the rocks, that then ricocheted off the stone wall I was riding by, and hit me in the arm, both legs and chest. OOOOOWWWWWWWCCCCHHHHHH!!!!! Who saw that coming??? I'm just thankful they didn't hit me in the face...geesh!!
About Me
- Joanna Birchfield
- We all have the good and the bad in our genetic makeup. We give credit to good genetics when it includes those features that we are proud of, those traits that make us successful and confident. Then, with bad genetics, we start pointing fingers at our elder ones, who have obviously caused our perfections to go amiss. Well, it's my turn. So, I will now do my own finger pointing. From my dad, I've started having cardiac "concerns" that include a history of high blood pressure and high cholesterol, and from my mother..."My Natural Girlish Figure" (which Mom loved to call "the Applebaum stomach"). This is my journey to thwart bypass surgery and diabetes, both of which happened to my parents. My journey includes several lifestyle transformations with the goal of becoming a more holistic person. And, although it's hard to see, I'm eating a piece of cauliflower in my profile pic.
