Getting back on track.

Good Lord! I’ve gotten really weak! I haven’t really been motivated to ride lately. I pretty much explained what was motivating me to ride when I posted this . Lately I’ve been having to come up with new motivation and I think that I’m just going to have to remember how much I enjoyed watching the weight come off and how much I loved the feeling of accomplishment when I would get to the top of Bankhead Pkwy or when I rode the 105 miles in Claxton, GA for the Cruisin’ in the Country Century that I have every intention of returning to next year. That was very cool!

Anyway, I rode today and while it was nice to be back on the bike I found that I was pretty weak. :) Ofcourse that’s in the eye of the beholder, I’m sure the guy driving the concrete truck that I was chasing at over 30 mph didn’t think I was weak. But, the fact is that after 15 miles I felt pretty tired, a problem that I intend to remedy ASAP. I actually feel the best I’ve felt in a couple of weeks. Between catching the cold that my Sister, Dad, and Melissa (My Dad’s wife) had over Christmas and then having that cold turn into a sinus infection I’m finally starting to feel normal and the crap that’s coming out of my nose is starting to be more and more clear! Yay! I know you really wanted to read that. I guess the vitamins and everything that I’ve been taking are starting to kick in too. I’ve been back on my Creatine Suppliment the last two days. That’s not long enough to notice a difference, but when I was taking it every day I could tell that it made a huge difference in how hard I was able to ride all the time.

So, I’m going to make a commitment to myself to ride as often as possible from now on into the spring and I’ll suppliment that exercise by doing some Todder PT with some of the ASCE folk in the evenings several nights per week. The goal is to lose what I put back on and get down to 235 by the time regionals roll around in Tampa, FL. I really don’t want to look like I looked in Miami last year. Though there already isn’t any comparison.

Okay, that’s all.
