Ouch!!!!!

My head hurts and my legs look like the front of a vehicle grill!

I started out on a 56 Mile Ride and 5 Mile Run this morning.

7.5 miles in a large insect flew right into my helmet vent; I felt it crawling around so I stopped to take off my helmet and felt and awful pain.  A bumble bee flew in and stung me!  I had never been stung before now and it hurt like heck.  Ashley came and picked me up.

While I was waiting for my ride I had a homeowner that lived close by offer to help but I did not feel that I needed anything.  I, also, had another rider stop and ask if everything was okay.

I rode out in a rural area and there were a lot of small bugs.  My legs look like the front of a car grill, bugs are plastered all over them; yuck!

I am at home now, the stinger was not left in so I just have to deal with the occasional throbbing.  However, I think I will attempt again tomorrow!

  1. I hate bees, and I'm highly allergic. . . so I'm glad you didn't die :) And I think it's great that you attempted it again the next day! You are such a great motivation Billy! Although my exercise doesn't compare to yours, when I think of quitting and being lazy, I just think of how much more you're doing and it keeps me going! ~Lindsy

  2. Thanks for posting Lindsy! I was starting to lose motivation for my posts because I did not feel like many people were reading them. I will start to post more often :D
