Had our weekly Saturday training ride with our TNT group. Back out to Chappell Hill, TX. Last time we were there it was Easter weekend and it was freezing cold and sleeting. I broke a cleat and wound up driving as extra Sag wagon.

This time it was nice and warm, no wind hardly at all. Qutie nice. I did ride today but only made it 50 miles. Planned route was 65!

This is only my second week on hills due to broken cleat that one week. Grrr! The hills were kicking my butt today! I was doing ok for most of the ride. Coach was teaching me more about hill climbing and how to use the momentum and sling shot over the next.

Whew!! After about 100+ hills and 50 miles...My brain had had enough! It was fried! I just could not shift and deal with one more mentally. I was having to stop after each hill and psyche myself up for the next...That, and my body was sweating but I was getting chills....Don't know what that was about. DH said I was very red in the face.

So, 50 miles for second week on hills and this was a real challenge. I may not have made it the whole way, but still feel pretty good about it. Sort of.
