When you bike 2 miles past this and then realize your mistake after a long pause and a U-turn. You scramble up a little trail just to let your entire body just calm down and cool off. Nothing else matters when you find spots like this.
Meanwhile i just acquired my first ever poison ivy rash on this trip.
Surprisingly taken with an iPhone 7
30 miles on the #gaptrail today, maybe not the best decision, considering how sick I've been.
.
When you grow up surrounded by the 'walk it off' and 'rub some dirt on it' generation, it becomes ingrained in you.♀️ It's a part of me that'll probably never change...
.
I think that's why I have a hard time admitting defeat, even if it's from injury or illness, I always try to 'soldier on.' (And usually end up worse for it.)
.
I'm managing though, taking it easy, and feeling much better today than I have since last week! And this weather! What a wonderful respite from the heat!
.
Get #outdoors if you can! Go #playoutside ! Enjoy it! Who knows how long it will last!☘

These hours spent on trails, whether #biking or #running, have become my lifeline. I've come to need that feeling of freedom as much as I need water.
.
The freedom from the confines of societal expectations. No social grace necessary (to be honest I'm terribly lacking as it is). No need to be a 'lady'.
.
It's my belief that we are all animals, though I've come to find it's unacceptable to act like one...
.
Except in my solitude. On trails. It is there that I can get sweaty and dirty. I can spit and hoot and holler if I want to. The other animals and trees don't seem to mind.
.
30 miles on the Canal today, my glutes and hamstrings were not having any hills, and it's much flatter in that direction.♀️
.
Would've taken the day as a rest day but the feral animal in me wanted out. What could I do but comply?!
.
Happy humpday insta-peeps!

A winning view: #TeamRTC President Ryan Chao and his family wrapped up their first bike tour on the @gap_trail! Together, they tackled 72 miles over three days from Cumberland, Maryland, to Ohiopyle, Pennsylvania, on this epic @greatamericanrailtrail host trail.
.
Who else is ready for a #GRTAmerican experience—on the beautiful GAP or on one of the 125+ other host trails
52 miles on the #bike on the #greatalleghenypassage today.♀️
.
Not the 50 miler I'd planned on ♀️, but a 50 miler I'm incredibly grateful for being able to do!
.
Felt good to get out and get moving after the week I've had. Exercise, especially in the #greatoutdoors, is completely underrated.
.
Thank so much for all the good vibes and kind words on my last post. They were appreciated so much!
.
Hope everyones weekend has been lovely so far! Happy (belated) fourth!

We’re back from another amazing bike tour on the @gap_trail ♂️❤️♀️ Had a TOTAL blast with a few mini-disasters that ended up working out for the better ... like arriving in Pittsburg to discover our hotel reservation was messed up and many others were sold out! But we found a room, (and a great steak for Bob,) and it was the perfect trip to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary! ❤️ #greatalleghenypassage #biketour #cycling #cyclinglife #joyfulmiles
"Nature heals. Being in nature, or even viewing scenes of nature, reduces anger, fear, and stress and increases pleasant feelings. ... Research done in hospitals, offices, and schools has found that even a simple plant in a room can have a significant impact on stress and anxiety."
.
All the more reason to #playoutside ! 23 miles into my 46 mile ride ♀️, made it to the Divide today on the #gaptrail from Cumberland. Determined to beat Barry!⛈
.
Figured I'd share a picture of #nature to help reduce stress, ease anxiety, etc. (My being in it is an added bonus ). You're welcome.
.
Have a terrific Tuesday friends.

The Ohiopyle Low Bridge crosses the Youghiogheny River on the Great Allegheny Passage Trail! This trail goes from Pittsburgh to Cumberland Maryland I rode my bike to Frostburg, Maryland on this trail last year...but many come from all around the world to go the distance. You can actually take this to DC...335 miles from Pittsburgh
