Since I got sick a few weeks ago I've had some good days and some I'm-not-quite-well-yet days. I'm trying to listen to my body and make sure it heals, while not completely falling off the training grid. A tricky balance.
Kevin took me on some new roads yesterday. I spent the first several hours of the ride going backwards, but somehow during the first longer climb things turned around and I started to feel more like myself.
At one point Kevin almost got sprayed by a skunk. I was not fast enough with the camera, but it would have been a much better shot than this one. Thankfully the skunk did not spray either of us.
And even though I'm not quite 100% yet, being out on roads like this made me grateful to be outside this weekend.
