Finally

Weather was great...finally got to get out on the road bike. It was nice to not be on the trainer. Ride was fairly short, around 20 miles, but I had limited time. I was so happy to finally be out side riding that I started off way too fast, not paying attention to my HR or anything. I was enjoying the scenery when I came to my first small climb and my legs felt like steel weights. I trucked up the hill knowing there was a nice descent on the other side. By the second hill I hit my legs were warmed up and ready to go. The rest of the ride was great and can't wait to get outside and ride again. I really have to work on warming up and stretching before riding. Need to sit down with Amy and figure out what races I am going to do this year.

The next month is going to be extremely busy getting everything ready for the MTB festival. Think I have a work day every weekend until May (except Easter). Don't know if I will have enough time to train for the first I-74 race but I will decide if I am going to do that when the time comes. It would be a lot easier if we had 30 hour days!

Yeah, I always forget about that teenager and she is probably the most work out of all of them!
