140 Days

The last 14 days didn't go quite according to plan. I haven’t been able to train as much as I want do to some issues with my skin, which has been keeping me out of sleep. But I started training again on Wednesday. I am not myself on the bike after so little sleep and training, but at least I’m riding. This morning I got a taste of what it feels like to get dropped (something I haven’t tastes very often in the last few months). What made it ultra-hard this morning is that I didn’t get dropped because of physical shortages, but because I simply didn’t have the willpower to keep going. That is very unlike me and causes me some concern for next weekend’s race. I hope I can keep it together.
