Nightly ride

So the hubby and I are planning on another bike ride this evening if he gets home in time. We won't be able to go this weekend and I won't be able to go after work because I have a friend coming into town (eeeee!). I'm a little bit worried about calories because we like to eat together (like constantly snacking, grazing, munching) but I am hopeful that I will be able to stick to my eating habits.

I was thinking about the fact that for the next 6 months or so, I will be able to ride 22 miles every weekday what with:

1: commute (2 miles)
2: solo ride (10 miles)
3: duo ride (10 miles)

So that in and of itself is 110 miles! Then if I do 20 each day on the weekend, BOOM! I'm at 150 miles a week! It's crazy that I've gone 310 miles in a month an a half when last year I went about 475 miles the whole year! Last year was just really bad for me, and I am so happy to be leaving it behind and making such positive changes! I'm hoping to get to 500 miles by the end of the month.

Sidenote: Started my period today so I am going to skip the weigh in this week so as not to be discouraged by apparent lack of progress that is likely due to water retention. Plus, all the more weight next week :)

Nice ride tonight with the hubby. Hoping to still get in a bike ride this weekend and to maaaaybe get 5 more miles on the stationary before I pack it away. I have 40 miles until the end of a line and it's sooooooo doable!
