Feeling low...

13 Feb 2008

With the team ride on the horizon, I'd like to be feeling in a better mood. Unfortunately, I'm just not enjoying things at the moment! It's been a real struggle to get out on the bike this week.

Yesterday, I slept through my alarm, and when I did eventually get out, it was incredibly windy! I struggled with a new 20 mile route - there are bits of the route I've done before at 16mph, but today with the wind I was struggling to do 10mph! A couple of cross winds nearly blow me off the bike!

Today a different, more familiar 22.5 mile route, felt better and quicker, but I just can't shake off the blues! I wonder whether I am suffering from fatigue? Maybe all that speed at the weekend took more out of me than I thought...

I'm working from home today, though the notes I need are at work - I did try to go into London to get them, but there was a fatality on the line and the trains were cancelled. Time for lunch now...
