shocks...pegs...lucky!

So I wimped out on Thursday night, then I tried to run outside Friday night but it became VERY obvious that I pushed it too hard last Monday, because... the shin splints are back. NOOOO!!!!!

It's actually OK though, because Saturday we went bike shopping and I got a new bike! The Trek 4500 WSD--made specifically for women. I tried a bunch of bikes before finding the one, and after a test ride at Laurel Hill last night, I know it was a good choice. And, it's a way to keep in shape while I rest the legs--at least the part of the legs where the shin splints happen. I think it actually helps them, since my feet stay flexed for the whole ride. Anyway...

Off for another ride!

P.S. It doesn't have pegs. But I am lucky.
