I went home last weekend (as in 3/29-3/30), so I wasn't able to ride, and I did not get any training in the week before that. I tried to ride on Tuesday after work, and before I even got out of the parking lot of my apartment complex, I ran over a piece of glass and flattened my back tire. There is nothing sadder than that sound of all of the air quickly deflating out of my tire. :( Anyway, by the time I got it changed, it was dark and I missed my chance to ride. I had to tutor on Thursday after work, so I didn't get to ride then either.
However, the Sunday before that (3/23), I did a ride that was a little over 30 miles. It was hard, but it felt good. I almost turned around 10 miles, making it a 20 mile total ride, but pushed myself to 30, and was really happy with the decision afterward. I made sure to stretch afterward and wasn't unreasonably sore the next day, either. This weekend I will be putting in a nice long ride again, but I don't think I'll have a chance to ride before then. I'm going to see a pretty awesome dance company on Thursday, had a business dinner last night, and the next post will explain tonight and tomorrow night.
The long awaited fundraising update is coming up now....
