Years back I used to race mountain bikes. Done some triathlons and road races too. Seems like that's so far away now. I'm about 30 lbs overweight.

Man, this is my life off and on all the time. Work, travel for work, work for work, kids, home, wife, life, etc etc etc. It saps everything I have sometimes. And it does get the better of me sometimes. Exercise I like, like riding singletrack helps so much to allow me to get some blood flowing when I don't want to workout.
It helps tremendously for me to have someone to do it with as well. I am 1000% more likely to workout if I have someone to do it with. It is one of the reasons travel is so hard for me with exercise - I get away from people exercise with and then there is no accountability.
I need to lose 25 lbs right now and it is coming off the slowest and hardest it ever has. At least cycling is fun lol.
