Increasing mileage

[sadieme]

Thanks! That sounds like a good way to put it all together!

Before I had a chance to read this, I went for another ride. It was cool and beautiful out so it was easy and fun! I ended up going 23 miles and felt great. Came home and went to lunch and then grocery shopping with hubby. So I guess I wasnt too spent!

I think I will take the easy days at 15 miles and do the long days at 20 or so. I think 15 will be easy at this point and a good place to start.

Oh... and I was so excited to get out in the cool day I forgot to eat anything, and I still felt ok! (but stupid 'cause I forgot to eat first! LOL)

Thanks for the good suggestions!

I came on this site with exactly this question in mind... looking to see how much I should increase and how fast. This discussion really helped, thanks!
