Welcome!

Thank you for checking out my blog! I'm getting ready for the Habitat 500 in July, and these are my (mis)adventures getting ready for the intense week of cycling!

Just Realized How Lazy I've Been About Posting.


Last week I went running at French Rapids with 2 of my workout buddies. It was beautiful, AND I DIDN'T GET ANY TICKS! YAY!

I went on a bike ride with another VISTA on Sunday, it was super fun. Sarah is the best on-bike picture taker I know. It was really windy though, and because of the way the Soo Line Trail is situated- some gravel, some paved- we had to ride the trip BACK in the wind. It was fun, and good training. I saw my first Gold Finch of the season! And a cat eating something dead, and a very large cottontail rabbit. And lots of cows.

It's interesting when you work out hard as fast as possible, it's a different kind of sore than when you do longer trips at a lower intensity level. The muscles in my joints are sore and stiff. Hrm. Lots of stretching.

-Also-
It's so wonderful to have consistently nice weather!

  1. Hi Alicia! Tell me more about your cycling project. Are you in Brainerd (I am too). I'd like to do a profile of you on the Mom Squad site. Maybe shoot me an email? Thanks! scroungequeen(at)hotmail(dot)com
