I needed that:
Things turned pretty pear shaped, this afternoon, got worse and worse.
Then.
Soccer was cancelled, suddenly we weren't about to rush out the door in 10 minutes, and CycloWHAT suggested some time on the trainer to make it right again. Initially I blew it off, bad mood. Was just going to eat thirds of dinner because, god damn it, it tasted GOOOOOD! But something simmered there in the back and suddenly I was swapping the trainer wheel on the Blue, grabbing the iPod and stetting up in the back yard in the 65 degree drizzle and damp. Simple work out. Nothing fancy. But I pedaled my brains out, at the limit, for a long time. Well felt like a long time anyway. Then the cool down.
What a difference. Sort of. Still not sure how/when I'm going to get gluing (maybe I should be gluing instead of drinking water and writing). Hey the night is still young... ya never know. I can't prep the wheels (out of cleaner and prep and only two tubes of glue at the house) but I can at least get a start on the tires. I gave myself a good couple of blistered getting the old ones off. At least I have some confidence in my glue job, even if I don't have any confidence in anything else, esp myself.
There is only an hour left before the close of registration. 12.8 miles of pain. Join in the fun!
