Training inside on the trainer is like torture to me. I feel lethargic and I don't really care. I find it hard to do intervals because I have no incentive. There's no downhill, there's no wind at my back.
Thank goodness for outdoor training!!! This weekend I hope to get in a good 60 to 80km ride. For the past couple of Tuesdays I've been doing some hills on Highway #5 because it feels so good. I even have a friend to do it with! I quickly jotted down my stats from last week and I did it this week too... I guess just to compare. It's nice to know I'm getting faster... even if it is marginally.

Max: 51.0 km/hr
Tonight is the mountain bike riding with the ladies, but I might skip it. The house is still a disaster from moving and vacationing. Plus it would give my legs a nice break.
About Me
- Crystal
- I am a jack of all trades, but master of none. I have more interests than I know what to do with. I come from a farm in a small community in Saskatchewan. However, somehow I came out of that town knowing that there was more to the world than what was shown to me there. Instead of watching it on television, I wanted to experience this world. I have had a lot of ups and downs in my life, but all have been interesting and taught me about myself and about humans.
