10,000 Calories Burned

When I decided last fall that I would take up cycling in a serious way, I definitely had to decide weather or not I was going to stick to it enough to warrant all the expense of buying all this super-nerdy cycling gear.

This morning I was able to get a decent estimate of how much I've ridden:

Member Since: 10/12/2008
Total Maps: 14
Total Workouts: 14
Total Distance: 192.98 mi.
Total Burned: 9,841 (kcal)

Holy crap, I guess I'm really doing this. My next ride will hit 200 miles and 10,000 calories burned, that's definitely some kind of landmark.

Interestingly, my weight has actually gone up a pound or two this week. I suppose any fat I've been burning is being replaced with leg muscles...

I've been using my GPS in my phone to log all my rides and upload them to mapmyride.com (i have a huge love hate with this site, great idea, great futures, worst user experience/design ever).

Stay tuned, my next blog post is going to be all about pain.
