Arboretum Ride With Max & Macy, Two More Rides Beyond That

 This morning I went on a bike ride from Olin Park into the Arboretum and back again with my Bible Study friends Max & Macy. It was fun! Really got my legs burning.

Then, I went on another bike ride to McDonald's for a McChicken, Fries, and a Coke, and then out to my Mom & Dad's place to hang out with my Mom.

Two Walks and a Bike Ride to the Bank and Back

 Today I went on two walks - one around the neighborhood incl. the woods, and one out and around to McDonald's for a McChicken and a Coke, and then later a bike ride to the bank and back - I accidentally ended the workout at Walgreens where I stopped to get a Couple of Gatorades. Oops. Oh well.

Two Walks and a Bike Ride & Bus Downtown and Back

Then I went on a bike ride to Willy St Co-Op Northside, then back home, then out on the bus to downtown (the Square) and rode my bike down to The Memorial Union, then to Starbucks, then walked a half mile up State St to Michelangelo's to eat my lunch I bought at Willy St (Raspberries, Brie, Oat Milk), then walked back again, then rode my bike back up to the Square and caught a bus to the North Transfer Point, then rode my bike back home from there, with a quick stop at McDonald's for a McChicken and a Coke. I burned 996 Calories today total.

A Walk, A Bike Ride, and Buying Two Kids Some Snacks

Today was great! I went on a walk around the neighborhood (through the woods), and back around to Packers Ave and got a Gatorade at the BP. https://www.mapmywalk.com/workout/4608229897 Then I went on a bike ride to Kwik Trip, and helped buy two kids some snacks they didn't have enough money for. "Good deeds prepared in advance for us to do." was the verse on my mind. Then I biked home. https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4608371908

Night Ride

Tonight after Life Group, I went on a night ride to try out my new headlights and rear flashers. Went without a hitch! https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4604142484 Lots of fun - a little dangerous so I took Wheeler home instead of Northport Dr. Anyways, now I'm off to bed!

Walk & A Long Bike Ride

 This morning I went on a walk:

https://www.mapmywalk.com/workout/4602651100

And in the afternoon I went on a long bike ride from Office Depot (arrived there on bus) down to downtown & the Square, around the Capitol, then back out on E Wash to the Yahara River Bike Trail, then to Mom & Dad's place for a visit, then back home again. My phone died on the way so there's a big jump on the map:

A Walk From the UPS Store Back Home

This afternoon I walked from the UPS Store back home (took the bus out). I still have a lot of pain in my right knee, took some ibuprofen for it.

A Long 4mi Walk

Today I went for a long walk (4mi+) around in the woods behind Lakeview Elementary, back out onto Northport, to McDonald's for a sausage & egg McMuffin and a Coke, and back to my apartment building - going around the block a couple of times and then getting a ride from mom out to get coffee with her at MOKA, then back again, and around the block several more times before ending at around 4mi total.

A Brief Walk

 Today I went on a brief 2.11mi walk: https://www.mapmywalk.com/workout/4596053947

And a bike ride of 2.9mi but I forgot to end the workout so there's a big flatline over a good last chunk of the workout's total time. https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4599439990

Several Walks Up In Hatfield

I went on several walks with family this past weekend, one with mom:

One with Aunt Lisa:

And one with Uncle Paul & His Fiancé Lisa:

We had a great time, and I also prayed for Aunt Lisa's hips/back/allergies. Also found out that Uncle Tom needs help with his website and business cards - so I'm likely going to help him out with that.

A Walk & A Bike Ride & Heading Up North

Today I went on a walk https://www.mapmywalk.com/workout/4588182607 and a bike ride https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4588553098 and got a few things while I was out and about - a Powerade, some Brie, and a McChicken. I'm also starting a new diet - the Keto Trim Down Club, which should be interesting. I'll be doing a lot more cooking soon. Kind of excited about it. Also, pretty soon (Sept 3rd) I will be starting my apologetics coursework at RZIM, which is also exciting. Also, today my family and I are heading up north for a family reunion in Hatfield, WI. Should be fun!

A Walk With Grama

This morning I also went on a walk with my Grama https://www.mapmywalk.com/workout/4573850755 and we had a great time watching the Sandhill Cranes walking past us. They're really neat!





Some Off-Roading On My Bike Ride

Well, this morning I went on a bike ride https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4573258009 instead of a walk and went up into the woods behind Lakeview Elementary School, and off-roaded it for awhile. It was rough! Anyways, I just got done watching church online, and there was a great sermon on the love of money and the gift of God to be able to enjoy what you have in this life. I did some soul-searching and found that I'm pretty content with what I have, but would like to work and make some of my own money rather than just rely on SSI & SSDI (Disability).

Birthday & Bike Ride

Well, yesterday was my birthday! Hallelujah! It was a great day - we had Famous Dave's Family Feast and an ice cream cake over at Grama & Grampa's I also brought along some Jamaican Kola Champagne - which was a lot like a cream soda. Today I had Men's Bible Study online - we talked about being on guard against the enemy, having a good offense and a good defense, putting on the full armor of God and waiting for the master of the house to return. I also went on a 5+ Mile bike ride, out to my parents' place and back again. https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4571867158 Which was great exercise. My knee still hurts a little bit and is still a little stiff, too. But getting better.

Two Walks Today - One With Grama & Grampa

Two walks today - one by myself and one with Grama & Grampa. On the walk with G&G, we saw a baby toad and two F-16s! Pretty neat. I've ordered a walk tracker device that keeps track of pace, cadence, etc. - looking forward to seeing that come in the mail!

Two Half-Mile Runs

Went on two Half-Mile runs, one today and one two days ago - but I didn't get the chance to blog it, so I'm putting them together on this post. Felt really great to get the endorphins running through my system. Helped my knee feel better too. Stretching it out now in the butterfly position / cross-legged.

10+ Mile Bike Ride With Bible Study Friends

Well, we just got back from a 10+ Mile bike ride ( https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/4553265070 ) - me, and Mike, and Daniel, and Derek from my Saturday Men's Bible Study - and it was great! I even got some Ian's Pizza on the way back through that area. I thought about working on my game but decided against it since it's Sunday - our typical day of rest in the Church - and my game is going to be a source of income when it's sold on the App Store. So, instead I'll be watching church online and studying the Bible and maybe watching a movie later on. That's the plan!

Healing For My Knee

This morning I prayed for my knee to be healed in Jesus Christ of Nazareth's name and it felt a lot better! I'm currently waiting for my car ride out to the bike path where we'll be riding this morning (me & my Bible Study friends).

4+ Mile Walk & A Sore Knee

Today I went on a 4+ Mile walk ( https://www.mapmywalk.com/workout/4550682592 ) and still have a sore knee that's hard to kneel on - it feels inflamed or stiff or something. I hope it doesn't mess up my bike ride tomorrow - our Men's Bible Study is going on a ride at 9:30am tomorrow morning. I hope I'll be ready!
