Training for my first Metric Century-62 miles

[Owlie]

+1 to what the others have said. There's always next year. Enjoy the shorter route rather than trying to suffer through the metric.

You have received great advice thus far.

Here's something else for you to consider in the big picture...

What do you love / enjoy about riding your bike?

If the whole "training for an event" thing isn't working for you now, with the rest of your life stress, find some other things to ride that are not stressful, but enjoyable, what you look forward to after work, vs dread.

Personally I've had to switch up what I'm used to doing with some medical/health stuff. I was starting to think that my cycling soul might die. But, now with some changes in different types of riding, the love affair has begun all over again. Fwiw.

Good Luck.
