For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction...

I was hurting this morning. Last night was a late one and we ended up getting to bed around 3:30 am. My mind was numb today, doing simple tasks like surfing the web was difficult. However, I was able to teach Reid how to use the snow blower and of course he loves using it. I decided to do my Sunday long ride earlier than I normally do. Sometimes when you ride after a crazy night of debauchery, training time can go fast, 2 hours can seem like 1 hour, or it could go slow, 1 hour can seem like 2. Today was one of those 1 hour feels like 2. I was surprised how strong my legs felt, I was pushing a pretty high gear. I'm really enjoying being able to surf the web while I ride, I'm starting to get hooked on watching You Tube. I didn't eat much today, other than some bacon and eggs in the morning, I needed the grease, so I made sure that I ate during the ride. It felt good to finish by 6 pm and afterwards I had some olive oil laced pasta and started to feel a little better, but I'm still paying the price.
