In Limbo

As I was commenting on another friend’s blog, as is often the case - an insight floated into my foggy consciousness: it’s as if I’m in limbo until something gets settled - the direction of my clinic, my son’s future, etc.
This amorphous uncertainty is maddening, but in the meantime I can sift through old posts from Spark People as I untangle my motivations...

I joined SparkPeople in the spring of 2010, hoping I’d found the solution to peel off a few pounds, improve my fitness, and get through the greatest challenge of endurance riding, the Tevis Cup.

This is the shrinking time frame until the Tevis ride... A cold chill went down my spine as I finished filling out my entry forms last week.
It's an awfully big commitment in time, money, & EFFORT for me to set myself up for another failure.
So I hereby commit to daily gym sessions as I work my way through my "Back Strengthening" book:

That's my Wynk in his prime, circa Y2K.  Let's hope your baby brother can fill your hoofprints.

You are so focused on this ride, and that is a good thing. If you are like me, you find it easier to focus on health if there is a reason to do it. Back strength is probably VERY important for this long ride, so I'm impressed that you are working on it. You go, girl!
