Got home last night ahead of the storms. This morning, the train came in on the New Haven bound track and I had to sprint up the stairs, CX-mount the bike on the overpass, and run back down as the train was pulling in. After climbing a big hill.
And I was less winded than I was the day before. I was worried that I'd been off the bike too long and had lost way too much ground fitness wise. Got a long way to go to be the hotshot I was in 2010, and I no longer have any kids that need picking up at daycare and hauling over hill and dale.
