My leg isn't broken. I have a contusion (bone bruise) on my tibia with internal bleeding which basically means it will hurt like (expletive) for a few more weeks and then take up to 9 months to fully heal.
So looks like losing weight from running is out. Hello, bike!
We live a little less than 2 miles from Igloo's work. Nice, right? Well, the payoff is we live in 900 square feet. Don't forget that.
Anyway... We always talk about him biking or walking to work since we're fairly set on being a one car family. Sometimes I fantasize about being a no car family. I find that more freeing than owning a car and then ensuing funneling away of cash that comes with that. I know I wont convert you to that idea. With young kids who go to doctors for crazy diseases I'm not fully converted either.
Problem being, he has to be there at 5:30 am. No buses that early and it gets pretty darn cold most of the year.
So I'm looking at electric bikes. Because the whole commute is uphill. And no one wants to show up to work covered in sweat, right?
