Engine's been cool

This morning I did my little cinder block/step-ups/pushups/core exercise routine, and then went down to the river and paddled for an hour.

I rode my bike to the river and back.  Until yesterday, I'd had a six-day streak going during which I did not drive a car; I had to drive Martha to the airport yesterday, and that's what broke the streak.

I didn't have many places to go during those six days, and when I did go somewhere I rode my bike.  I hadn't set any lofty goal of staying out from under the wheel; it just sort of worked out that way.  Once I get in the habit of riding my bike places, it's really pretty easy to do.  I think being an athlete and living simply are complementary things.
