Ok... it is a board for women. I don't really feel comfortable talking about this but I am totally bummed out.

I just did the math for the big two day charity ride I've been planning to participate in since last September. It is going to happen during that time of the month for me. And not at the tail end when things are normalizing and I'm feeling better. Pretty much right at the beginning when things have always been worse (cramps, etc...).

I really can't imagine spending 14 hours over two days riding my bike (85 miles each way according to the course map online). There are support stations every 12 miles or so... but really... this could potentially be miserable. It is also my first ever of this type of ride. If it is anything like today - and I'm supposed to be riding right now if that is an indicator to how I feel - I don't know what to do. I guess suck it up and go? But this is supposed to be fun for me.

Sometimes I really hate being a girl.
