  • I certainly have. I ride often enough.

    My knees were busted too. Took me a while to realize I was overtraining at the beginning. The ramp up to 5k took me 10 weeks when it should have taken 8 as I was all sorts of busted up after thinking I could just complete the goal early. I was wrong. Slow and steady won that race and every race after that in my experience. Injured myself a few more times on the way to 10k and again on the way to 21.

    I seem to have leveled out so next year’s goal is 42.2 for a full marathon distance.







  • I suffered with what I thought was IBS for the last ~10 years. 4+ liquid shits per day with complete unpredictability.

    Turns out coffee was the problem.

    I switched to tea two weeks ago and I’m down to 2 normal and predictable shits per day. I’ve also gained a few pounds because I’m not so dehydrated anymore. That’s a good thing for me.
