<\/a><\/div>\nYesterday I set out on my 12 mile bike ride with my new clip in shoes\/pedals. I start at a mile marker 7 on the trail and then go to mile 13 and turn around. When I got to mile marker 12, I was like, “woohooo one more to go and then i can turn […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1890,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-576016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/576016","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1890"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=576016"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/576016\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=576016"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=576016"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=576016"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

\nAfter my ride, I drove to Publix for some snacks because my kitchen is absolutely bare.<\/span>
\nI was getting odd looks from people because my padded butt shorts were soaked with sweat. Totally flattering, right? I didn’t care. Food was my mission.<\/span>
\nRefueled with some yogurt, local blueberries, and a bagel. One with cream cheese, the other with peanut butter.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nAfter my ride, I drove to a local recreation center to get a 6-month membership card. I plan to go early tomorrow morning to a Master’s Swim class to decide if it’s something I want to join to help with my tri training.

I haven’t done any since my private lesson and almost feel like I forget everything he taught me! <\/span>
