I had a great morning bike ride in the cool crisp air yesterday. It was a first for me. Not the riding, I bicycle an average of 3 days a week on our beautiful parkway system. But this time was different.
This time I was alone.
Typically I ride with a couple of girlfriends or my husband. But no one was available and I needed to get my blood pumping. If I don’t get regular exercise I can get into a really “off” state of mind and emotions, so I ventured out. It was sooooo peaceful. I was able to take in the scenery and really think. And pray. Just a whole different experience from the usual gabby time with my friends (which is a ton of fun btw).
I will not have to think twice about going solo the next time they are unavailable.
Do you have a favorite place/way to do your thinking/praying/alone time?
Hi Ann! It’s good to meet you! It’s great to see another cyclist. Now that the weather has cooled here in the midwest, I’ll be posting photos of my bikes, too.
I love being by myself outside. Like you I have a ton of fun when I’m outdoors with other people too but sometimes it’s nice to be alone as well. It gives you a chance to really be mindfull
