Today I rode exactly 2 miles... that is on my mountain bike, to the pond in my neighborhood and back. Swam and read for a little over an hour and headed back. It felt weird to be riding in my Keens, even though I don't always clip in while riding the trails, I do have my bike shoes on. Coming back, I was a little nervous about climbing the 10-15% grade back to my house on that heavy bike, on the road, with a backpack on, not attached to pedals. But, it was fun. It sort of reminded me of riding when I was a kid.
The reason I rested today is that after my fastest ride ever on Friday and mountain biking on Thursday, I rode 56 miles yesterday and I was exhausted. My legs were tired last night so I forced myself to rest today.
