Well, it has been a couple of weeks and I suppose it is time for an update.
Short story.....not great.
But the long story might explain why. Or maybe it won't. I am confident it will sound like a laundry list of excuses. So I will give the medium story.
Riding has been ok, but not as much as I would prefer. I had a good ride at Merrell. A solid ride with the guys at Kal-Haven. Then a decent ride at Cannonsburg. A few trainer rides were sprinkled in there as well. Overall, feeling decent on the bike. All I can do is hope for the best at the race coming in a few weeks.
Food. Bad. I eat too much. Or I eat what I shouldn't. I did better towards the end of last week. Today I have to stay on track.
Weights...non-existent. I have to get back into this. It is important for longevity.
In a nutshell, I am now 17 pounds away from that 100 pound mark. I am up a few pounds. Weeks of terrible eating and inconsistent exercise will do that.
So all I can do is try again. I am off to a good start this week. I had a good food day yesterday and I was able to get out for a quick ride. Today I will avoid those pitfalls of the vending machine and any unnecessary garbage that I don't need. I plan to ride the trainer tonight, just to keep moving.
Every day is a different challenge. I need to ride to those challenges and not get stuck in a downward spiral.
Keep striving!
