New Year, just keep progressing

It’s January 1st, a brand new year. We all look at this time to start something new, to change in some way or another. For me, it’s another day to keep moving forward. I’ve tried to make resolutions in the past, but I’ve reached a point to where if I feel like something should change do it today not tomorrow.

So this new year meant getting on the bike, keep working on the winter base training. Goal was to get in a 3hr ride, I headed out to just get in the easy tempo ride. It’s always nice to get out and ride instead of being on a turbo trainer. Liking in Southern California does have it’s benefits, temperature was in the 40’s. Crisp morning as it rained past couple of days, but stopped the night before so clear sky. Not to much wind just an overall great day to ride.

One thing I noticed being out was everyone and their mother was out. Seemed like all wanted to start off the year on the bike, good stuff. All and all got in 2.5 hour ride covering a bit over 40 miles. Nothing like being out on the bike, feels great!

Now time to keep going, this week brings a rest week before second 6 week block of base training. Now my goal is to stop eating so much and drop some weight, tour of Palm Springs is end of this month and looking at a reverse triathlon at the end of February. Lets see if I can get this holiday lbs off!
