I spent much of August growing more depressed until mid-September, when Evan invited me to ride my bicycle to Ballard with him (a 19 mile roundtrip ride). It was the first real exercise I’ve had since training for the marathon last spring - and it felt terrific. I could feel my spirit rekindle just challenging my muscles and increasing my heart rate. Cardiac output is a wonderful thing.

But only for cars. If you are biking you can carry your bike on a wooded path about 100 yards or so to a long, descending staircase and then you’re back out on the road on the other side. Yay, shortcut to avoid hills! [...] [...] The little road where 26th Ave says that it dead-ends which I blogged about last time really is a dead end. But only for cars.

Pfft. *I* went that far over the weekend and it was nothing - except for pain with sitting for the next two days, and sunburn across my lower back, and tight quadraceps muscles, and the fact that my heart rate monitor calculated that I burned 1300 calories. Aside from that...piece of cake. :) Think we can go up to the U district to pick blackberries this weekend? You call that a bike ride?!
