Had a very depressing start and later I found out why... I made myself go out even though it LOOKED kinda ugly because the Weather Channel said "cloudy and 0% precip" for the next few hrs. Well, yeah.. guess what happened one hour into my long training ride? Uh huh...thick misty-type precip....
I should have been wearing a jacket, but I thought for sure that it'd clear off. So..when the rain started, I got cold. I don't like riding in the rain anyway..and especially when I don't have to (ie - when I'm not caught in it out on an organized ride). So, unfortunately, I cut it short and headed home. My 50-60miler turned into a petty 25. This isn't boding well for my double century bid in about 6wks.. Bleh.
I just need some sunshine to shake this clouded brain of mine. Any of you gals experience that - esp in a pms-y time? I am having a hard time mustering up any enthusiasm. Cold and wet riding isn't helping the issue.
Wah wah. Pass the chocolate, please.
