✖️ Not A '21 Recap, Not Really A '22 Resolution Post This is more of a, "I haven't really posted shit but I don't really have any interesting shit to post but I still want to post shit post". The ride you see here was my last since the beginning of October. I got what I thought was a really strange cold from Syd (both of us PCR neg) that may have been more caused by the worst seasonal mold allergy reaction I've ever had (or a wombo-combo of both). It basically incapacitated me so that I couldn't do any type of physical activity without crazy fatigue. Brain and muscles felt super weird so I basically did nothing for nearly 2 weeks. Did tons of research and finally decided to 2x my Claritin and things started to change for the better. I'm still going to get an antibody test just to see if I did catch the 'rona and the PCR didn't detect it. Regardless, those 2 weeks basically gave my body the green light to go full atrophy - I lost fitness, muscle, and in turn gained all the weight I lost and more. I was at 214 and in 2 weeks hit 222, the most I've ever weighed in my entire life. I'm back to exercising where I was just before that, but have had NO desire to ride my bike. I'm just now starting to hit the trainer, but it's clear I have some mental work to do to get back out on the road. So here's some shit from the last few months that involves one bike ride, #seenwhilewalking randomness, exploring with Bug, and fucking with computers. If I have anything to say about the coming year, I just simply want to continue on the path of keeping my body mobile and physically active in as many ways as possible with an eye on keeping these habits as I continue to grow older. I'm sure I'll share key moments from this journey - things that have been working for me that could also work for you. And I'm sure I'll add more bike into the mix as well. https://www.instagram.com/p/CYUTawbpSKD/?utm_medium=tumblr
