"Never Mind"

I'm gonna do my best just to let this day go by without too much analysis.  I thought maybe I was just a bit mentally tired (or lazy if you will),  but by the end of my workout I was convinced it was physical as well.  I just couldn't get it out of second gear all day long.

The wind was from the east which necessitated heading out on my least favourite roads.  That was a mistake I won't make again for a while.  There is nothing I hate worse than butt thumping pavement that has sprouted a crack every 10 or 20 metres.  The worst thing about those vicious cracks is that it's very hard to relax and stay down in the aero bars. The next time I will ignore the wind, and opt for good roads.

And that's really the only excuse I have today.  I generated just over 140 watts and a speed of 28.4 kms/hr.  My attempt at a run afterwards was futile.  I walked/jogged 2 kms, and left it at that.

Like I said.  Never mind!  Tomorrow is another day, and there will be another after that one.  Maybe I'm not in as great as shape as I'd like, but at least I'm still in damn good shape.  Life goes on.

  1. One work out of many, and one day of many, not really significant in the bigger picture if you ask me. Great quote.

  2. You just keep on keeping on, as you said. I agree with John; this is one day and tomorrow is always a new day. Another semi-quote ('cause I can't remember the exact words or who said it -- one of those academic things so Michael may know): The world you perceive becomes the real world for you. Your world is rockin'!!
