Never Satisfied
Here I’ve been complaining about how miserable the weather can become as winter approaches in Michigan. Well, mother nature must have been listening because we’ve had a string of beautiful days. The problem is that I’m supposed to be recovering and laying off my feet. But this warm weather seem almost like a gift and it would be a crime not to take advantage of it. So I’ve been lacing up, but taking it fairly easy. I tell myself, there’ll be stretches when conditions will be icy, the Arctic winds will blow, and looking out the window from the pool or gym will be just fine. Any minor setbacks from enjoying the sun and tepid breezes of this Indian Summer are acceptable given that its not going to last. When the bike trainer comes up from the basement and the short sleeves and shorts are substituted by much heavier cloths, it can only mean the inevitable. Still, I want to hold on to the last rays of a fun racing season as long as I can.
