Training ride 3/30/08

Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 in Training

Greetings readers!

I went out for a spin today, for Morale’s sake. I was alone so I had no one to chase, no wheel to hold on too, no gaps to have to close down. I took it slow, Painfully slow. It was indeed a recovery ride. I at no point tried to push or exert any force on the pedals. I took it as easy as I could.

I tried not to think about my fitness, how fast I was going, my avg speed, cadence, spinning, the time, nothing. I left all the existential stuff out of my head and just rode my bike. I got a little bit of everything today: sun, wind, rain, snow, hail. Only I cared not of the weather, or anything else. I probably should have taken the day off, but after yesterday I rode for morale. Whatever it takes, stay positive and keep riding.

On deck: we’ve actually got a nice week of weather coming up, so I’ll be parking the car and enjoying some rides to work. The sun will be a welcome change from the last few weeks of weather!

Miles ridden today: 33

Miles ridden 2008, 947

Cheers!

  1. Nice work getting within shouting distance of a kilomile through the first quarter, especially the atrocious weather recently. You’re averaging over 10 miles a day! It gets nothing but better between now and October.
