    13.8 miles tonight. Holy Smokes! It must have been "Hold Family Conference on the Bike Trail" night. I must have had to stop at least 5 times just on my way back because of groups spread out on the trail and most of them weren't moving, they were just talking. Oh well, I'll just figure that I got in a good HIIT workout with all of that stopping and starting.:tongue:

    Jumping on board 2/3 through the month. I often don't cruise the general community boards, favoring the Century Plus Cycling group. It's awesome to see all these folks out riding and reaching their goals! Feel free to come on over and join the Century Plus Cycling if you like what you see! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/3764-century-plus-cycling

    My August results so far (I hope to do 250, but 200 would still be great!!)

    As crazy as car drivers can be sometimes, I find cars more predictable than walkers so I try to stay on the road rather than use paths.

    I'm guessing about 10 miles today. My phone fell and the battery came out so I lost the first part of my ride. I'm pretty bummed about it because I was going somewhere that I haven't been before and really wanted the distance.
