How far I've come

This is a brief list of accomplishments since I started my training (informal as it may be).
  • Rode my bike to Boston (250 miles total, over a course of 3 days).
  • Rode my bike to Philadelphia and back (90 miles each way over a course of 2 days).
  • Rode my bike to Bradley Beach, NJ and back (90 miles each way over 2 days, averaging 18 MPH on road)
  • Ran 5.2 miles in Central park at a pace of 7.07 minutes per mile.
  • Ran 13.3 miles at a pace of 8:30 minutes per mile.
  • Swam and didn't drown. (I did this in Astoria Pool until it closed for the summer.)

I also wanted to provide these before and after pictures to give you an idea of where I am not from where I started. Not that it really should matter all that much, but I thought it might be a good resource for an infomercial some time.
