i told T i felt like a little kid at Christmas that has to go back to school but wants to stay at home to play with her toys... the toy of course being the bike... i eventually went outside last night about 845 and rode the bike around the neighborhood just a little bit - up Alma, down the hill to the right and back on up by R&Cs house... let me say the uphill - well that is a crazy uphill - are still trying... and with the thinner tires when you slow down that need for balancing is magnified!...
so this morning, i thought i'd go out for a run... when the alarm went off, wow I was so comfy lying in my bed, so it took some internal self talk to get on out AND THEN I checked the temp - really? 80F at 530am? yuck! but this is really the best time to get on out there, only gonna be hotter later in the day and it will probably storm before it cools off..
So I ran a little over a mile around the neighborhood. That is the first workout after race day. It took some time to get the feet moving in the pace of a run. But it felt good once I got started. The race in August is 6 weeks away so this is where my focus needs to be.
And then when I got back home - well with the new bike sitting in the middle of my sun room... I took that out for a little ride as well... just up the street and back and a little bit out on the main road for just a bit... REALLY LIKING IT!!!! cant wait for flat roads this weekend...
