The mileage is adding up.
When I started riding in April, 7 miles was a difficult thing to do.
Today I did 37 and could have probably done more.

There's a lot about this I don't understand, but I'm working on it.
Each day I'm showing substantial deficits in calories.
My daily goal is 2560 for my size and weight to slowly lose a pound a week. That's without exercise. My exercise calories burned is usually substantial. (today 3188) So 2560 + 3188 = 5748 calories I could eat to slowly lose that pound.
An example would be yesterday.
2560 + 3318 = 5878 I ate 3299. The difference is 2579 calories.
Yet I was able to get back on my bike and do another 37 miles today. Strange stuff. It would appear my body is pretty efficient at burning fat.


I rode with MapMyRide!
Distance: 37.07mi, time: 02:22:30, pace: 3:51min/mi, speed: 15.61mi/h, Calories burned: 3188.
Todays ride.....
