Bike Ride Outdoors

I’m cranky.

I did an hour spin class this morning. It was hard. I was tired at the end.

I got home and the high temp was going to be 50 so I decided to go for the first outdoor ride of the year. I wore the wrong gloves and the wrong tights. It was only the second time riding outside on aerobars; there were uncomfortable moments. The 90 minute ride had moments of feeling great, feeling awful, and feeling fast.

A half mile from home I got a flat.

Did I mention that I’m cranky?

My shoulders and neck were so sore when I got home. I only wanted to go into the hot tub and all would be okay. Both hot tubs in my complex were out of order.

Now it’s 6:30 and I’m ready for bed but I have dinner plans – trying out the new restaurant in Granby. As soon as I get home I’m going to bed and hopefully will wake up for swimming. This is the hardest week - 16 hours. I’m cranky and have a flat tire on my bike.

It can only get better; right?
