Day off the journey but back to it.

 

Tuesday I had to take a day off of the journey. I was not feeling well enough to bother trying to do a walk. I woke up yesterday and felt a lot better so it was time to get back to it. I decided to walk an extra 15 minutes to make up for some of the missed time on the day I took off. I wont stop exercising but I will take a few days off here and there. I also will not beat myself up about it as life happens as long as I continue to see progress over all it will be worth it. 


Thinking about the progress I have been doing very well with keeping to a diet. The weight has been coming off and it has not been two weeks yet. I had to go to an event where I had to put on work pants and they still did not fit correctly. I did not expect that my goals would be done in two weeks, it would be unrealistic to think the pants would fit. That all being said the first blog post I made here you can see that I was at 180 and even though I did that weigh in different than the rest the one after I was 179. This weigh in I am 174 so I ended up losing around 6 pounds so far. I feel that it good progress so far and I am hoping to see that trend continue. 

As far as having something more interesting than just walking on a treadmill I still have to wait for the weather to get better. It is not looking like there will be any good weather near me until next week so hopefully I will get to post about doing things outside. Also still waiting for 165 before I add weight lifting to the mix but that should be soon enough as long as I keep the progress up.

Heding back to the journey! Have a wonderful day and thank you for reading!

Review of the Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike.

Ozark Trail 700C G. 1 Explorer Gravel Bike. 7/10 not a bad bike!  I have read and watched a few reviews on the Ozark Trail 700C G. 1 Explorer Gravel Bike and I am typing it out by full name becuase I think that has the best chance for my review to be read. Anyway I am writing this review after watching and reading other reviews becuase there is something very odd that I have noticed with them. Either this bike is the best bike on the market for the money or its should go straight to the trash becuase its the worst. I feel that both of these types of reviews are just wrong but they do all have good points about the bike. I have put 500 miles on the bike and I have thoughts on it as well as the discourse about the bike.  So this bike cost 250 dollars before taxes. For that 250 dollars you get a heavy gravel bike with cheap components. One of the complaints I have heard about this is that Walmart sells bike shaped objects and nothing is pretentious than a cyclist saying that...

Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike 1000 mile updated thoughts.

1000 Miles of Riding the Ozark Trail G.1 Explorer Gravel Bike I have ridden this bike for 1000 miles according to my Strava logs so I figured it was time to update my thoughts on the bike and go over some of the things I still like about it and some of the things I don't like about it. I would rather give my summary upfront and then explain the rest later on so if you want to read the details you can but if not then just read the summary. It is a good bike even after 1000 miles I had not had issues with it that hinder my ability to ride it. I would buy another if this one broke or something else happened to it. I also see this as a perfect starter bike or a bike to have as extra such as when friends come over. Now the summary quick thoughts are over lets get into the detials on things.  The Wheels and Tires The tires are one of the first things I had little hope for when I started riding this bike. They are kenda tires but the bike is 250 dollars so they would not be good tires rig...

Still on the journey and exercising every day.

I have still be exercising every day and feeling okay about myself, as far as health and body goes anyway. There have been lots of things that have got in the way of my journey that I have not let stop things but do make me feel down and that is the reason things have not been updated here in a bit. When I sit down to type out a post I end up thinking about other things I could do with the short amount of time I had and I end up doing nothing with that time and not updating the blog either. Anway enough of that for now, it is time to write about the journey since my last post.  I have been going on bike rides and expanding the range of the bike rides as well as the speeds of the rides. I mentioned joining Strava and I have been trying to get as fast as I can on some of the segments I like. I have not got close to beating anyone on a segement but trying is fun for me and gives me a goal to strive for. I also ended up buying another bike for some extra fun. I have been riding mostly ...
