I am, too, but not from the climbing. After saying I was going to treat this morning's ride (on the Muncie half-Ironman course) as a recovery, I still pushed myself more than I should have and finished with an average of 17.0. My legs have been cramping ever since the drive home. I don't anticipate a restful night.

I got 25 miles in this morning, right now I'm at 260 for the month. Today was my first time using clipless pedals, and I lived to tell about it!

Goal for May - 350. Made it with one Tuesday night training ride to spare. That'll net me another 30. I already know I'm going to miss the Thursday night Bumble B shop ride this week. Too bad - it would have put me over 400 for the month.

By comparing MTD to YTD, you can really see who lives in temperate climates
As of this morning:
MTD: 1350km / 839 miles
YTD: 1904km / 1183 miles

Made my 450 mile goal for the month (currently sitting at 462 with this morning's commute). I really didn't think I'd get there. Feels good.

5-25 did 34.3 miles
5-28 did 35.4 miles
MTD - 372 miles! With at least one more ride this month I will be over 400 and my goal was 300! Less than 2 weeks until Tulsa Tough though, curious to see how I handle 70 miles with 2500'-3000'+ of climbing in this heat.

05/07: 21.1 miles (commute)
05/10: 22.6 miles (commute)
05/11: 24.1 miles w/ 1,100'
05/13: 3.0 miles
05/14: 13.8 miles
05/18: 22.4 miles (commute)
05/23: 23.3 miles (commute)
05/24: 22.9 miles (commute)
05/28: 1 measly mile
MTD: 154.2
Goal: 200
I'm doubtful that I'll reach my goal. Considering that I was sick for 2 weeks this month, and was very busy with other responsibilities that had to take priority (virtually no weekend rides), I think I did pretty good. I'll still try to squeeze in one more commute this week for another 22+ miles, but I think that's all I'll have time for over the next couple days.

Took a dya off from the bike today.... much needed really. Legs still screaming from Saturdays ride and climbing.
Month to date I have 625.5 miles. Goal was 450. I was somewhat nervous about reaching goal this month due to work travel.
