So here I am trying to lose those pounds again. I've slacked for more than a year now. With 37 unwanted pounds on my frame I'm finding cycling, running, and fitting into my pants to be a challenge. So I've made the determination to get started doing something. I've been eating lightly and exercising this week. So with 37 lbs to lose, that should take more than 4 months to lose using my 2 lbs weekly loss plan. The half marathon will come in just 3 months. But I should be down 26 lbs by then. That will make for a lighter tread.
In other news, I have got the touring bicycle nearly done. With the bar tape put on, I did a test run this morning. The geometry of the frame was great. With just a little tinkering on the front derailleur and installing the adjuster barrels for the brakes, I should be ready.
