Rise and Fall
I am officially out of shape. This morning's bike ride, or should I say travesty, is all the proof anyone would need. About three quarters of the way out I had been steadily increasing my speed when I smacked into the wall. As I leveled off at 17.5 mph, I figured I could at least keep it above 17.0 mph. Nope. Well, it's been awhile so 16.5 mph isn't too shabby. Uh no. Trying to save myself here; I can surely keep it at 16.0 mph or better. Not happening. I settled for a 15.5 mph pace. Sure I could blame a few traffic signals I had to stop or slow down for, but the reality is that they were welcome breaks during an otherwise disappointing ride.
Time to move on. The rest of May will not be featuring any Whataburger. Nor will there be any beer. Must get my mojo back.
Listening to: Heartbreaker - will.i.am
right there with you, man. I ran 10 miles yesterday, felt great during the first half, then bonked and practically crawled home. stick with it. i think it's mostly mental for me.
