Saturday morning bike workout
Up and at it today and onto the bike. I need a name for my bike. Seems like everyone has a name for their bike, so far I call mine "The Yellow Cervelo". The workout called for 3 sets of the Muscle Tension Drill and 3 sets of the Fast Pedal Drill. I can hear my dad's voice..."always do more than they ask" So I did 4 sets of each. Not because I think I am any kind of cyclist but I get on the bike most times out of pure terror as I do not want to embarrass myself in July! I am starting to lose that fear a wee bit after speaking to Justin. Yesterday I asked him why I am not running much as I have that Hypo Half coming up. He says "You can run a half marathon. I am not worried about that. Just wait, because you are going to run a fast one in May. This one is for fun." Who would have EVER thought I would run a half marathon FOR FUN!!! Kind of puts a new perspective on things for me. And of course"fast" is relative. I told him I wanted to go under 2 hours in May. I was close once (and three months pregnant) so with some help now, and no baby on the way, maybe this will be the year!!

hey...i kinda wish that the half was my peak race too - we could do so much of this together. I would love to break 2 hours for the half but I will not be pushing like that then so there is no way i will do it then ...any hoo - i called about the "how to fix stuff on your bike on a race course" at the bike shop - call me and we can work something out:) for late Jan or in first week of feb??? 1 night only - likely thursday at about 6 pm
Don't feel bad. I don't have a name for my bike yet either. Like everything else I've named, it sometimes takes a bit of time, but the right name pops into my head, and I know it's right.
like COWBOY....lmao
