Fitness

So, it's always good to see progress while working hard on something. This week, I rode in the group ride from the Alberto's bike shop in Highland Park, which I do frequently on Tuesday nights because it's a good measure against other riders that are much stronger then me.



The last couple times in May that I rode on the Alberto's ride, I could not keep up (I was "Dropped") as they powered up a long inclining road call St Marys RD. This week, after a race weekend, I was half expecting the same, to get dropped. However, I attended the ride anyway in hopes I would feel good. Well, I felt great!



I stayed in the group, I even bridged some gaps for dudes in front of me dropping off the pace. I was able to get up front and do some work, I stayed with the pack during hard fast sprints. I wasn't at all tired or winded. Damn that feels great!

Race # 2 For Me

Well, lets see if I can pull another good finish out this Sunday. I had a good week of training which means I am a little tired. I will rest up tomorrow and get plenty of sleep before the race. The plan is to drive up to a friends house early Sunday morning in Milwaukee area then ride to the race from there with him. (Save some gas money)

Not expecting huge results yet this early but we'll see what happens. I will update Sunday after the race.
