Day 26 of 45

(I've made the decision and commitment to step up my health and fitness in preparation for my first sprint triathlon.  I plan on keeping a daily journal on my progress.  Check out my plans here: http://bit.ly/ixs0xO)


I hope you have a big trunk because I'm going to put my bike in it.

Yep, I went ahead and finally got a bike.  Took it out for a ride and found that I'm a noob when it comes to riding.  I'll post a link to the stats below, but it was pretty much all just a learning experience getting used to handling it and the shifting.  It was also a learning experience figuring out where I was going to ride.  I tried to plan it out on Runkeeper, but it didn't work out so well.  I wanted to hit up the I&M Canal Trail, but ended up on a different one instead.  After I realized my mistake, I made it to the I&M one but it was gravel and I have a road bike.  So I went back to the trail I was on and messed around there for a bit.
