For as excited as I've been to do year no. 2 of BRAN, it occured to me how ill-prepared I was and a part of me was actually a bit apprehensive.
This past month I decided to kick it into high gear and get in more training (weather permitting, which it frequently hasn't been hence part of my lack of training!). It's not my intent to brag, but merely point out the miracle of muscle memory. This last weekend I did the Santa Fe Century. I was a bit nervous because of such little training this year to prepare for it--but I rode it without injury or ailment! Sure, I was a little sore in the honches, but motivated by my success--I rode to work from home and back twice this week--a total of 56 miles! I'm going to spend these next two weeks with addtional conditioning and rides but I'm far more confidant than I was last week at this time!
Now, my apprehension has been replaced with sheer excitement! See you all there! _________________ What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us--Oliver Wendell Holmes |
