woooo hoooo to you..that is really great...keep up the good work!
Congratulations, MB, on turning such a downer Summer around!!! I hope that's got you set up for a Fall full of all good things!
From someone who never leaves the school setting, even in summer, congratulations, Makbike & have a wonderful school year. Here's hoping you have a classroom full of little angels this year!
holy moly! that's a lot of miles in a month :eek: :D way to go! definitely an accomplishment to be proud of... :)
Great job Marcy!! What an accomplishment despite all the hurdles this summer. It takes time to get back on track after major life changes but we're here for you girl:p
Maybe some chocolate or bike gadget is in order to celebrate? Or BOTH!!
Indysteel I've logged 4270.57 miles thus far this year. Of these miles 3363.32 have been road miles and the rest were logged on my trainer.Quote:

Yes you may toot your own horn, pat yourself on the back and celebrate :D :D :D Your accomplishments this summer say a lot about the person your are. Congratulations.
That is so impressive!!!
I've been strutting around all week since I broke 600 for the month! :eek:
I didn't ever respond to your earlier posts about your summer but I read them and found them eerily similar to a rather nasty winter I had a few years back. It was a really rough time but I learned a lot about myself and gained a lot of confidence in the bounce back. I'm so glad to see that you are doing so well.
Rock on, girl.

Wow!! I think you should do a commercial for Tour de France next year! :eek: :DQuote:

Oh, and I love your kitty's eyes. Such a sweet face!
Thanks ladies for all the kind words and support. It has been a rough summer but I'm moving forward with my head held high. I'm fully recovered from my surgery and I'm working hard to put exBF behind me as best I can. Some days are better than others but I continue to look for the good and I just know good things await me.
Sundial, I try to ride at least 6 days each week but I will confess sometimes I just keep riding. I listen to my legs for they are not shy and will quickly tell me when I need to give them a day or two of relaxation. I took 4 days off in July and a on a few of those it took everything I had not to pull a bike out and go for a spin.
My goal each month is 500 miles which is not hard for me to reach when the weather is warm/hot but is a bit of challenge when I'm on the trainer.
The kitten in my picture is Penelope. She turned 1 year old back in April and is a devil of a child. She looks very innocent but she is not. I love her to pieces but she has issues.
Personally, I don't think you should toot your horn. Nope, a simple toot won't do at all in this situation. I think you need to lean on it with your entire arm and let it rip for a good long time. All I can say is WOW!!!! GOOD GOING!!!
