Goals

Only the second ride this month and wow, so much of my early season fitness is missing, not to mention my flexibility. Its hard to stay comfortable in the drops. While I'm missing alot of the goals that I set last year for myself for this year, its still been a better and harder year than last. I wanted to ride 3,000 miles this year and this year I'm only about halfway there. Closing in on 1,300 and I'll be happy to make half of my former goal. Didn't get to ride to work (though I did ride to my workplace as a test ride...). My schedule changed a bit too much and made it alot harder to get in, but mainly I wasn't motivated enough. And I'm pretty sure that I mentioned a metric century (62.5 miles) as a goal. Didn't get to that either, but I did crush my old mileage limits with a few 35 mile and a 40 miler that I'm proud of. There's always next year and I'm looking forward to it while still riding outside this year until (and after...) the snow comes.
It was a short ride, just short of eleven miles, but better than what I've been doing- nothing... as I'd been sick... http://www.mapmyride.com/workout/1250181637
