Difficult decisions
This is the hardest time of year for me to decide what type of workout I want to do. As spring is an the horizon and more and more days climb above freezing and we first break the 60 degrees mark I want to be outside all the time. These are they days when I see people running and I want to run. I see people riding their bike and I want to. I see dogs in the park, babies in strollers and children on playgrounds. The many months of cabin fever stirring the inside to the point the sun shines and you question its deceiving nature. Is it really as warm as it looks? Finally the answer is yes!!
Now I am a runner no question about that, but I also bike. This is the point in the year I get to dust off my road bike, tune it all up and be ready for the road. I commute to work on my hybrid and do the occasional bike trail on my mountain bike. So what is a girl to do? I want to go for a run,and I want to ride me bike. Initially its easy, I don’t have a ton of miles on my bike and like any sport I have to ease into it and well break my saddle in again so I can do both. But as the weekends approach and I don’t have to work I want to go on 30-50 mile rides, but then there is long runs, and yard work, and walking the dog. There are truely not enough hours to the day nor miles on my bike or on my shoes.
