Plus, it hurts across at least 3 ribs, about 1-inch above the nipple-line to 6-inches above.
Never, ever had sore ribs from anything.

Take it easy for a while, like I said!

A miserable 7.14 miles last week. The good news is that this week is shaping up to be good, as I already have quite a bit more than that this week.

Was going to ride on Saturday AM, but too cold ('n I'm too lazy)
Then going to ride on Sunday afternoon, but even colder than yesterday ('n I'm still feeling lazy). Water pipe out back broke, couldn't get a shower 'cause the cold line was blocked w/ice. (In Cali...they leave their water lines outside--go figure. Me? I'm from frozen northern New York. Water lines are well protected there.)
Doesn't help to have to ride my old C-dale Black LIghtning--hurts the lower back. My carbon fiber Kuota is without a rear wheel (spoke pull-through ). I'm waiting for a new one. Probably another 2-weeks while it gets shipped from Mavic in Boston and then built once out here (southern Cal.)
Warmer weather, my cf bike back, should get my miles up to 175-200 or so. It better.

In all honesty though, I usually ride two long club rides on the weekends and either one or two other rides during the week. Schedule is usually Monday night trainer (90 minutes), Tuesday run (4-5 miles), Wednesday 20-30 miles, Thursday run (6-7 miles), Friday off, Saturday & Sunday club rides. I also try to do upper body weights on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It might seem like a lot, but I'm not the only one racking up the miles each week - check out ArcticJill, I'm not sure who she is or where she's from, but her mileage is right up there with mine week after week.
BTW, 130 of those miles were yesterday and today. We're doing another metric tomorrow as well since it's MLK weekend and none of us are working tomorrow. Thus upcoming week will probably include two off days (W/F) because of the 15k race on Saturday and my legs will be fried by the end of tomorrow .

Wow, she's impressive! The writing style of the blog's pretty good too!
