Struggled but I did it.

Wednesday, July 8, 2009

I really did not feel motivated to bike today, but I made myself go out. I struggled with one thing or another almost the entire trip. My legs were tight the first 5 miles or so, then I could not get my hands in a comfortable position. I hit some wind on the way out and had the wind in my face or pushing on the side ALL the way home.

I almost walked my bike up the last big hill heading home, but I managed to get up it. When all was said and done, I bike for 2 hours 23 minutes (31.3 miles).

I am having a problem getting motivated to ride this week. It sounds like fun early in the day, but when I get home from work, I just want to eat dinner and go to sleep. Maybe I am just burned out on training. I just have to keep it together for two more weeks. Once I am at the event the scenery change and the energy of the people should snap me out of it. There won't be any worrying about training. I will just do what I can do each day.
