OK, so pushed to absolute desperation, this mt bike chick road a trainer. We had a run/ ride scheduled today. Got the run in no problem, but we are in the early stages of a Nor' Easter here and it was sleeting and snowing this afternoon. Not bad to run in, but messy perhaps for a ride. I wanted to ride anyway, but the trails were a mess, and so was the road.

Not wanting to break my training rhythm, the DH dug out a trainer from the gargage that somebody had given us a few years ago. He hooked up Bluebelle, my sort of road bike and set me in front of the TV.

Yikes...it is mentally challenging. I did not last as long as I wanted, but I pushed myself hard, and did not have to forfeit the workout.

Kudos to you guys that do hours on those contraptions.....
