That's a start...

So I did it. This afternoon I stopped procrastinating and, even though the snow was starting, I headed out on the bike for the first time in 8 years. Let me say that riding a road bike and riding an exercise bike are two different things. You probably know that. Let me also say that a helmet doesn't keep your head warm.

I spent 30 mins on the bike riding 5 miles around the local park and discovering a new part of the city that everyone else seems to know about.

I returned and then went for a walk around another park with my friend Tony thus notching up another 7000 steps in the process. It's now 9pm on Easter Monday and I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself after for actually doing something with my weekend. I'm heading back to work tomorrow feeling pretty positive and I'm very proud of that given that there have been plenty of things happen over the past 5 days that could drag me down. I guess I'm just not going to let them.
