At one really steep short hill, I hollered to DH: "Hey watch THIS!" and stood up in my pedals and powered up that hill in no time flat standing up all the way. I've only been able to do this recently, and DH was stunned and delighted. "Way to go SWEETIE!!" he yelled. I was so proud of myself today, and am so happy to be seeing real evidence of getting stronger and stronger.

I feel so incredibly lucky to be able to enjoy such gifts.
That rocks! It's always nice when you see the results of all your hard work!!!

Congratulations on getting up those hills!
