Zapped Mileage

First ride after the trip to Ottawa. When I was woken up this morning it was pouring rain. Enough to make me think the whole day was going to be like that. When I actually got up the rain had stopped and it turned into a nice day.

The plan was for me to meet Sue at work, and we would go for an hour ride together. When the time neared for me to leave, I felt less and less like going. I was still feeling pretty zapped from the trip home.

I went anyway and met up downtown. Our route took us out to Oak Bay via Rockland, then along the water to downtown. It was a pretty nice route, but I never really felt all that great. I never warmed up and my legs were definitely not there. Sue said I should just call this an easy ride, but truth is I was suffering a little.

On our way back towards downtown, it started to rain on us. I was sure glad to get home though. I rode for an hour and 20 minutes for a total distance of 26 KM. No record for me, but it is something. Hopefully I can get more mileage this weekend. I may go mountain biking again. Not sure though.
