Made it back onto the bike again yesterday for another 9+ mile ride along with some arms and abs/obliques with the kettlebell. I was hoping to bike a little bit farther, but I was faced with some nervousness and frustrations before I ever got on the bike. Obviously, I'm anxiously waiting on those test results. I'm really not expecting them until next week, but sometimes they work quickly. They already messed with me once on Tuesday. I got a call from the hospital just to have it be a customer service survey. Then yesterday, right before I was getting on the bike, I got a MyChart alert that I had new test results available. I got myself all worked up just for it to be the official write up on my chest Xrays. The doctor already gave me his verbal assessment. Needless to say, my pedaling was inconsistent as I came down from the emotional roller coaster...well, only part of the way down since I'm still waiting.
I think I'm going to take today and tomorrow as break days, since I need to have some built in to make this a routine/habit and then get back to it on Sunday. This will also work well for when ball starts back up in September. Tomorrow, we're planning on a double feature at the movies. Instead of doing the popular "Barbenheimer" combo, we're doing "Haunted Barbie."
