Another hilly 51.9 km which had me pass the 3000 km mark for this season.
BTW getting back into an exercise routine or starting a new one is never easy. I just checked my "journal" from last year. the first week I did just two rides of 20 km each (12.4 miles). increased that week over week, starting with 10% and going higher as I got back into the real swing. The inspiration hit me at the end of the XC skiing season, it took me 9 weeks at the beginning of the season to hit my stride on the skis since my summers had turned into too much relaxing. Hard to keep up with the middle of the "keeners" pack doing that.
Real bike training? That was 35 and more years ago when I decided to do triathlons in order to get away from the running injuries.
As one of my "old timer" buddies used to say "We get too soon old and too late smart".
