God Bless Texas!

After nearly 4 hours on the bike today, all I can say is "God Bless Texas!"  What a beautiful day to enjoy the country roads of Texas!  I rode from home to Marion, New Berlin, TLU and then back to New Braunfels.  They call it a "metric century" when you ride 100 kms or about 60 miles.  Surprisingly, I felt really good until about the last 30 minutes when my body was just tired of being on the bike.  My energy level remained high till about 10 minutes to go.  All good signs given my diet and my overall lack of fitness.  I continue to be amazed how significant my weight loss is to my performance on the bike.  I've lost 23 lbs. since the first of the year.  Tonight, I weighed in at 161 which is less than when I graduated from college!  I told Claire I'm starting to get glimpses of the body I used to have in high school!
