I generally go through phases with most of my other hobbies besides cycling and cooking. Cycling is my constant and well... a girl's got to eat!

For instance... I only knit when it's starting to cool off. I camp when it's beautiful outside and I've got company. I hike if I'm in the mountains (it used to be all the time, now it's isolated). Sometimes I'll devour six books in a row and not pick another one up for months.

It all somehow works out. I stopped sweating it. I think I realized that I have too many hobbies to every really devote myself to cycling or triathlon at a high level, but it's still entirely enjoyable.
