Week 33: Day 1 - 2014

  • easy bike ride with group = 15.5 miles, time = 1:10:40, pace @ 13.2mph
  • easy walk with dogs = 2.37 miles
This morning during the bike ride, I had a wasp fly into my helmet. That was a bit scary. I saw fly towards my head/helmet, then I felt a thump and then I felt something move on my forehead. I took the helmet while still riding and I saw the wasp crawling all the edge of my helmet. Good thing it was on my helmet where I could see it and not on my head! If it was on my head, I probably would freak out because I wouldn't know how to get it off of me without it stinging me a billion times. (I got stung by a bee once and I'm not allergic to one sting...while one sting does hurt a lot, a bunch of stings will hurt way more than one sting.) Anyway...it was hard to flick the wasp off of my helmet while still in motion because I was trying to keep up with the group (I was a little behind, riding alone). The wasp finally flew away, but it was hard to strap on the helmet back on while still in motion. In trying to do that, I dropped my helmet so I really had no choice to stop and put it back on properly. Luckily, we were on a low traffic road.
