Baby it's cold outside

Lesson #4(Lessons 1-3 in Previous Posts): Do not eat 3.5 PB& J sandwiches and attempt to run directly after.

Good news: I’m going to get my road bike from Bike and Build here pretty soon!

So I’ve been back in school for over a week now and it’s been crazy. At the begining of other semesters I just kind of ease into the work but this semester I had to jump right in. It will be one of my toughest semesters because of all the biology classes but I guess I’ll learn a lot. Plus I have this summer to look forward to.

I got in a pretty long bike ride and it’s a lot different than riding back home. Here in Arkadelphia, Arkansas if you’re not riding down a hill then you’re going up. It makes for great training though and once I get an actual road bike (I ride a hybrid) it will be twice as fun. But that was the last ride in a really long time because a few days ago I just discovered that my tire is completely flat. This wouldn’t be a problem if I had a tube but I used my last one a few days ago and the nearest bike shop here is about a 2 hour drive. There’s no way I’m going to make that anytime soon because of this crazy schedule. Not the best preparation on my part. So now I’ve just been doing a whole lot of running to at least stay in shape. Other than that I’m just trying to keep my head above water and get back into school/study mode.
