My Actifit Report Card: 3️⃣/1️⃣6️⃣/2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣5️⃣
This morning, I found myself standing in my backyard. I felt a quiet sense of purpose as I prepared the garden for the upcoming spring season. The task was simple: planting roses and a salad plant.
The rest of the day unfolded in much the same way—quiet, productive.
The afternoon brought with it a burst of energy as I decided to head out on my bike for a ride along the trails near the Wupper river. The weather was perfect: sunny but cool, but not too cold.
The trail by the Wupper was as alive as ever, the river’s waters danced over the rocks. I rode through the twists and turns of the path.
It wasn’t long before I found myself hitting the trail for the fourth time.
As I made my way home along the quiet forest trails. The sun was about to dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows from the trees.
Then, as I approached a small hill just 20 minutes away from my house, I noticed something unexpected: my bike chain had snapped mid-ride. There was no warning, just a sudden metallic clang as the chain fell away, leaving me stranded on the side of the road.
Forcing a laugh that was part frustration and part disbelief, I pushed the bike up the remaining stretch of hill. Lucky me from that hill on, it was only downhill to my home.
As I walked back home, a sense of symmetry came over me. Exactly six years ago, I had bought this very same bike—a sturdy, reliable machine. Yet after all these miles, it was the chain that had finally given out.
Though I was frustrated with the timing, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of gratitude for the six years. This bike had taken me on countless journeys and vacations—through winding trails, across open fields, and even the occasional flat tire or now a snapped chain. It had been there to witness my activities over the countless rides.
