After the Saturday TNT ride and Honoree Potluck, I was feeling on top of the world. Sadly, I made a little mistake at the Honoree potluck... I ate cantalope. I love cantalope; however, it is not fond of me. Still by mid-afternoon the next day I was feeling pretty much human again and off I went on a 30 mile recovery ride. I am pretty sure no recovery actually took place. Despite riding at an easy pace, my legs just never came around were just sore. I think 'The Wall' and the cantalope conspired against me.
In any case, I made it through the ride and actually saw more people on the road than usual which was kind of nice. I am really looking forward to Daylight Savings because I may be able to find more people to ride with during the week. I am hopeful that my schedule will be around 40 miles on Monday, followed by a short ADA ride on Tuesdays, a hill section on Wednesday, and the the Valley Spokesman T 'N T ride on Thursday (hopefully, I will be able to hold the pace). My goal is for this training to prep me for not only Best Buddies and Tahoe, but for Grizzly Peak, Prima Vera, Death Ride, and dare I speak it's name.... "Climb to Kaiser".
For now, I decided to take today, Monday, off since I was feeling kind of beaten up. However, I will definitely be back on the bike tomorrow and Thursday and I can't wait.
