Speed Is Relative

Today, I rode with a fast group. I stayed with the front of the pack. They might not have been pushing hard, though? But anyway, everyone said how strong I am. I have difficulty accepting this praise, as I have other friends who can drop me at will. Sigh. My easy is another's hard, just as my hard is another's easy. Well, here comes another week of Build training phase. I get to rest the following week. Looking to see some gains.

Weightloss

I've finally reached the point where I can eat the quantity of calories, 2500/day, the doctors advise. Seems like excess, but my weight hasn't increased by more than a couple pounds. Maybe I can learn to accept my body as it is? Anyway, I'm hopeful this may solve all my injury trouble. We'll see.

Motivation Boost

I've recently entered a fun contest, Holiday Bootie Buster Challenge 2011, see logo on the right. This sounds fun! We'll see how it goes. I entered late, but it allowed me to enter my points for last week.
