Sometimes when reality hits you in the face, you have to hit it right back. I got hit with it on Saturday. I was on a road ride and it was windy as hell. It wasn't an easy ride and I wasn't feeling as good as I thought I should at this point in the game. Then it hit me. I'm in for a really long 24 hours come Oct. 13. Granted, anyone who does a 24 hour race solo is in for a long 24 hours. Fact of the matter is though, I'm not as strong as I would be had I not had my surgery 3 weeks ago tomorrow. HOWEVER, these things happen. Life happens. I'm happy with the way things have turned out. So, I'm hitting back. Like I said, these things happen. I'll just have to dig deeper, ride harder, suffer more, and most importantly enjoy it even that much more and be thankful for the opportunity to be there racing.
And you thought skinny, lycra clad, bike racers weren't tough. (evil laugh)!!
