100 mile week

Rode 40 miles yesterday morning with David, Eric, Jude, Karen, and Susan, a new person to join the group who works for JDRF. This brings my weekly total for last week up to 100, which isn't quite where I need to be, but ain't too bad.

A new problem, aside from time, fatigue, and lack of preparedness has entered the picture: Weather. It is tough to figure out how to dress when it's 52 degrees out. Too much, and you sweat like crazy. Too little and you get cold and miserable. I did fine yesterday with my grey shirt and the orange "run hit wonder" shirt on top of that for additional warmth and visibility. I also wore long pants, which was good. I think I need to buy a thin fleece or something like that.

Next week will be tough. I am in Wenatchee and then in Yakima for 3 days and won't have a chance to ride to work. And I can't ride to work tomorrow. Looks like Tuesday will be it.

Oh the trials and tribulations! Don't forget to donate to JDRF under my name by clicking on the "Ride for the Cure" link to the right. Thanks!
