Just Like Riding a (Recumbent) Bike

Tea: Christmas

Music: Queen, "Somebody To Love"

Time: Night.

The ankle being largely better, I went back to the gym today. I thought I'd just warm up a bit on the recumbent bike, then do some light upper body lifting.

Sixty-five minutes and twenty virtual miles later, I climbed off the bike. Just felt right to be on it, for some reason.

I suppose there's something in our bodies that tells us what we really need, be it in the way of food or exercise or rest, if we'll just tune in and listen. My problem is in tuning away from the Want Channel (usually set to barbecue, hamburgers and lots of caffeine).

Not that there's anything wrong with those, of course. I just have to rediscover the balance. It'll come.
