Getting In Shape
When I started training for the bike rally I was 20 pounds overweight, and had enough muscle to be able to get up from my computer, get to the dining room table and then make it to bed.

So I’ve been blogging about how I, an ADHD adult, managed to train for a 368 mile/6 day bike rally in less than three months. Bearing in mind that I was out of shape, didn’t have a bike, hadn’t ridden in years, and the other 190 riders had been training for 6 weeks.
I pulled it off using the same strategies I’ve used to manage and even master my ADHD…
I had to break the bike rally into chunks. Manageable chunks.And since I didn’t own a bike, hadn’t ridden one in a decade, was out of shape, overweight and late to start the training regime, those chunks had to be very, very minute to be manageable.
