Checking Garmin Connect today I found that I had only 63.6 miles to reach 2,000. That is just miles on the road this year. If I including indoor cycling I would have more than 2500 this year. That is about 500 less than last year. This might be due to poor weather conditions, and my stint in the Hospital in June which laid me up for about 2 weeks all totaled.
Although I am not satisfied with doing less than last year, I am happy that I am finally getting back into form after a terrible spring. Last spring not only came late, but brought raining conditions and lots of pollen. I suffered greatly from some kind of setback that caused asthma like conditions. This in turn caused me to seek medical advice, which then landed me in the hospital for all kind of cardiac testing. This turned up nothing, but helped me feel more confident to work harder during subsequent workouts. Now I am feeling strong, and ready to ride, except that the season is winding down. No matter, I enjoy winter indoor training, and with a new year bring new hopes of speed and adventure...
