Hanging up my running shoes

. . . and getting some cycling shoes.

Well that's it. I tried and I failed. My knees have given up on me and I can barely walk up the stairs without wincing with pain. The old 'thritis has come back and has let me know in no uncertain terms that its still here and is going to stick around for the forseeable future.

I was putting myself through the pain barrier every time I ran so I'm going to take up cycling instead. My buddies go for a bike ride every Sunday morning so I'm going to start joining them. During my lunch hour today i'll be looking at cycling shorts and helmets instead of running pants and outrageously expensive shoes.

So that's the end of this blog. I can't really be bovrilled writing a cycling blog so Adios, Buenos Dias. I'll be on my bike then.
