That's how far I rode my bicycle today.  My friend Josh Drake talked me into going for a bike ride with him around Mount Morris, PA.  As we started off, I realized that my seat was about four inches low, but I didn't let it discourage me.  Josh rides for the cycling team.  I don't.  But my goal riding wasn't so much to keep up as it was to keep on the bike.  I plan to move my seat next time we ride, and I plan to be able to go at it a little more too.
18.2 miles.  What was I thinking?  I am praying that tomorrow as I walk to class I don't have sore legs.  The longest ride I have taken up to now on my bike is about 4.5 miles.  But I do a nine mile loop every time I ride out to the church for meetings (when it isn't raining, and I am not in a rush).
I feel like being in Morgantown is going to be a great thing for me both physically and spiritually.  It will probably be good mentally and emotionally too.  For the first summer since 2001, I will be in town.  For the first summer since I bought a home--I will also be in town.  I think it will be good to establish roots.
I think it will also be good to down some NSAIDs before I go to bed tonight.  Maybe some Naproxen Sodium, or vitamin I.
