Sorry Wednesday, I’m going to pass on bike commuting. You’d be a great test of my new cold weather gear but I have a thing against getting out from under my mid-weight down comforter to get up in the dark and cold to ride my bike to work. We had this conversation in October.
The following Tuesday’s current expected high of 50*F and a low that is above freezing is much more promising for Lady Rainicorn and I.
xoxo,
Laura

On week two of Not Being Able To Ride Because Real Life Calls. We’ve celebrated a birthday, we’ve taken the Girl Scouts to learn about our nation’s government, and also took a little time to catch up on sleep and reading (one of my long-time favorite things to do). We’ve also started roller hockey season – which is also one of my favorite times of year.
It’s tough … but not as tough when it’s cold and rainy. Or cold and frozen rainy. Ah, springtime in Pennsylvania!
I’m thinking about how I want to structure my athletic-type endeavors – cycling, running, and yoga. I’m currently planning on cycling (for sport/fun) two days per week, running one day, and yoga one day. This of course does not take into account my bike commuting, which I want to do two or three times per week. This type of schedule will be tough until summer, when the kids don’t have any real commitments and I can maximize my personal time. Until then, I need to get running onto the calendar first. My friends all run sub-10min miles. I feel like a schlub – but you can’t get better if you don’t even get out the door.
See you on the road!
wife. mother. awesome girl. 
meltmeltmeltmeltmelt. oh wait, you didn’t get more snow yesterday, did you? Yeah, I’m pretty done with this winter.
Just rain and freezing rain with the occasional fat snowflakes. It’s been cold though. Looking forward to lows being above freezing very soon.
If you are asking for advice I would say run more often. Even a short running workout (20 minutes) can do wonders for your fitness and running times. You may also experience a positive attitude shift…
You are probably right. I need to put it all on the calendar and then stick to it.
