i need to get back on the bike. that is, i need to start riding more than my daily one mile to and from campus. i got a map from a SLO bike group (im not sure which) that reminds me a lot of the map i got when i first started riding in SB.
im obviously feeling the urge because of my recent trip to Austin, seeing people race, fit people. i don't really feel the motivation to go out and train for triathlon, so i think i should find some good local trails and become a mountain biker (again). those hills can really work you, plus its a lot of fun. less car exhaust or potential to get run over and more trees, creeks, and mud. well, creeks and mud in places where it actually rains, unlike here. so im looking for trees, dirt, and dust. or something.
anyways, i've also realized that i don't have to allocate a full two hours or so to train like i used to. instead, i should just go run for 30 minutes and get it done with. i'll be happier, fitter, and spend less time watching TV. which would be nice.
