Happy New Year!

Biking the other day (last year actually) with some friends, I looked down and thought about how nice it would be to have a water bottle holder between my aero bars, with a straw. Then thought, since we are dreaming anyway, I would also like to have a cat eye on my bike to let me know how fast(or slow) I'm riding.
But those thoughts quickly dissipated when I remembered a conversation that I held a couple months back. I had gone to tune-up my bike for the Escape to Miami and I mentioned to the mechanic at MAC CYCLE how I felt about new additions to my handlebars. His response was very clear:
“Even if I tried, you wouldn’t be able to fit anything on your bike. There is no space!”
"Sometimes, no matter how badly you want to add something new to your life, you simply can’t, if you don’t make the necessary adjustments and/or eliminations."
I constantly find myself trying to fit things in where there’s no space, no time, or not enough energy left.  My goal for this year is to get rid of unnecessary clutter and make some space--in all aspects. May your 2014 be de-cluttered so that you can FIT all the things you really want in your life, especially time to log those miles and to spend with loved ones!
Cheers!

    Teacher, Author, Mother, and Runner. As I try to balance it all, I sometimes ask myself why I run. The Ironic things is that the runs themselves hold all the answers.
