I am signed up for Ogden and San Francisco Marathon I also am signed up for a few half marathons along the way to help train for race day. I am up to 16 miles and feeling good.
I got a road bike a month ago I have fallen over 1 time. I went biking with my sister and we turned around I was turned around and had 1 foot clipped in and standing on the other foot. I was waiting for Danielle to turn around and I lost my balance and fell over. I had a good laugh at myself. Then I got hit by a car when ridding from my brother’s house to my house the road was narrow and I went around a corner and a car behind me came around the corner and didn’t see me so I heard tires screeching and then the car hitting the median. My heart was beating so fast I thought I was going to be dead. I found that it only takes 5 minutes longer to go from my brother’s house on my bike than in the car that is just crazy.
I have signed up for a 40 mile bike ride in May and a 62 mile ride in September.
I have been taking different knitting classes. I took 1 to learn how to make a sweater from the top down and then a sweater class that you make the pieces and sew them together. I am signed up for 3 more classes over the next 2 months and will be learning how to make fingerless gloves and socks. It has been fun learning how to make different things and seeing the finished projects.
I will try to blog more but my guess is I won’t till after Ogden marathon May 21st. But for now here is a picture of my frog jason got me when dating wearing a sweater I made for him.

Holy Cow, Liz! Be careful on your road bike. I wish drivers would be more cautious of cyclists, but they just aren't.
I love seeing your knitting projects. They are so cute!
As for family matters, you have a great perspective: take life as it comes, and enjoy it in the meantime!
Good luck with your many races., and welcome back to the blogging world.
My guess on your first bike fall is that Danielle probably threw a stick under your tire. Heh heh. And way to go on your marathons! I'm looking forward to another half - I don't know how people run a full 26.2! Although I WILL be running one once I'm trained up!
