The weather was beautiful today, 83 degrees, and no wind. Two months ago I posted a ride on Strava that I named “easy 40 after work” in which 40 referred to 40 minutes. Many folks thought I meant 40 miles, and at the time, I didn’t know if I would ever complete a 40 mile ride again. Well last night I posted up 42 miles, and it felt very good to do so. I’m a little tired today, but not broken completely, and all I can say is tangible progress is a fantastic feeling.
