You're thinking that he promised to blog every day, and now he's already missed again. Well check again! Here it is, and you can even check the date. Probably you didn't look hard enough...
Anyway, it was my first decent length ride out side, and I picked a mediocre day at best. It was still only about 13 degrees when I heeded out at about 10:30. It was also overcast and gloomy, and for some reason I was reminded of last years Ironman. The ride was a bit better, but not much, and in actual fact I was a bit bummed. Until I put it all in perspective and I did that by having a totally useless run/walk afterwards. Oh well. More learning for me I guess. I still need to adjust my expectations.
I do know that it takes some adjustment to riding outside again, as the body (especially the back) just isn't used to the pounding. It will get better I'm sure.
Oh, and before I forget, thanks for the nice words of yesterday. I truly wasn't fishing for any love, but damn it, I'll take it!
ride 100 kms, 28 kms/hr - run/walk 5 kms, very slow
...I like this one....
