Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Actually, since he didn’t get paid for any of them, the value of the collective group is nothing, nada, zip.

Nor the guy in the green shoes.

I am the one in the grey ATC Racing singlet. Black shoes with green laces, though it's likely the one you mean. Definitely poofy in the midsection.

Also, haven't seen the south side of 170 since the crash, so it's not just in my head. Solid 10lbs over my old running weight, but right now emphasizing being fueled enough to try to get fitness back and not dropping weight and getting cranky.

TP Fitness today is 57, which is the highest it's been since the crash. Also very low. I could probably get it higher faster if that were my #1 goal, but that would mean more trainer and less running and walking. And with the long-term goal of more running races, those are more important. Functionally, I think the issue is that TSS doesn't track the effect of the pounding of running and all the extra stabilizing muscle effort.

Just yanking your chain. If you think you look pudgy then I must be morbidly obese.

I can review that Gunnar.

Funny thing about that jersey, kinda bought it by mistake when I was looking to add a winter jersey and it is actually too light for the coldest weather but it's perfect for 40-60 degrees with base and vest, as needed. It's my favorite jersey and you've probably seen it in other pictures. I'll be upset when I have to retire it. If I could get another of the same material I would, but it's a crap shoot.

Yeah, I knew that was you. Unless you had an Asian morph since your hospital picture.

I'm having difficulties being polite a sheep on another forum I'm participating in at the moment. And similarities are happening here. This too will pass.

Ah right. That time is a bit hazy. Feels like forever ago. I lose track of who’s seen a picture of me, and how clear.
