a month of training

As I was updating my training log today I realized it has been just over a month since I started training. Since at heart I'm an engineer this seemed like a good time to look at a few statistics.

36 days since I started riding
543 miles covered so far
56 miles was the longest ride
25,044 feet of climbing (who knew the Dallas area has so many ups and downs)
5 pounds is all I've managed to shed with all this training
18 days until the planned start of the trip

In general I'm feeling pretty good about the training. It has been a very pleasant surprise that years of relative inactivity can largely be overcome with a month of moderate effort.
