Yesterday, for the first time in three months, I went for a long ride. Most of my rides have been an hour, maybe an hour and a half. Yesterday, I did 2 hours.
It was a simple ride, just to the Art Museum in Philly and back home for 37 miles. I pushed the pace a few times, usually just up a hill or to chase down someone on the horizon.
I felt great mentally. That kind of ride always feels good to complete. The rest of the day, my legs were killing me, though. Dong a two hour ride after not doing one for a while can be a little more punishing. Over the coming weeks, I really need to get more of them!
