Getting my activity minutes but a tree down across the bike path

Activity Minutes Regroup

I was looking at my average activity minutes for this year. Since I've been wearing a FitBit for several years, it is just a click of the button. Because the school year has started and the weather is changing, I feel like it is time to set new goals and regroup with my fitness activity minutes. Today I feel the movement of time. Change of season. Change of moon. Change of tide. Usually I don't think about things like this, or feel it as strongly. The last of summer feels like it is slipping away and we're heading into fall. Yesterday was a cool bike ride. Usually when I finish I'm almost overheated, but yesterday I should have worn a light jacket or sweatshirt. It...

Bike Ride Recap of the 2019 Buckeye Breakaway

Fun. Challenging. Hot. Lots of food and laughs. Exhausting. Sleep Depriving. Happy. Silly. Tiring. Inspiring. Great. The recap of the bike ride for 2019 Buckeye Breakaway with my team the SOB's was all these things and more.

I suspect during one of their first rides, they ran into a ditch and then didn't ride again. Then 24 years later I bought it. The bike is 31 years old...

Rejuvenate with a Hike along the GAP

If you're like me and your legs get stiff from driving too long, you might enjoy taking some time and rejuvenate with a hike. This little waterfall treasure is an oasis located in Rockwood, Pennsylvania, which is about 10 miles south of the Somerset exit #110 on the PA turnpike. Why was I in the middle of Western PA taking a photo of this little waterfall? It was part of an annual tradition of Sisters Weekend. You see, I grew up with three sisters. We are close in age - my parents had four daughters within five years - and even now, we are still close to each other, although the miles separate us. The four of us try to meet up once a year to reconnect. Usually...
