23 Months Into A Healthier Life
I am 23 months out from surgery . The bottom picture was taken of me yesterday as I was about to bike 5 miles home from the commuter train station. Yes, that bike is a bit outlandish for someone of my age and, yes, I am wearing bike shorts and a sleeveless shirt in public (my kids got these non-spandex bike shorts for me as a birthday gift because they were appalled at the very idea of me wearing spandex bike shorts on the train), but the look on my face expresses my absolute joy at being able to bike regularly, even while looking like that. These days I ride as many or more miles in a day as I used to ride in a year. The man in the top picture could not have done that without risking a serious coronary event. I am so glad that I am no longer that man.
