    Can I join??? This sounds like so much fun and after trying to go it alone for so long, I'm realizing I need a group of like-minded people to support me and hold me accountable and that I can lend support and accountability to as well.

    10/4: another 10 miles on the stationary bike, for a total of 42 miles thus far.

    And an NSV at the gym today (populated almost exclusively by college kids): I was made an official member of the "IRON A** CLUB" by four buff college boys for staying on the WORST bike in the place for a full hour. Made me smile!
