Day Fifty Nine

Started this day around 4:30am. Got up, got dressed, ate breakfast and went to work to start riding. I went out there with the mentality that I was going to hit 20 miles on the bike. I figured as long as I could maintain a 10mph pace, I could do it with no problems. So, I took off on the bike around 5:30am. I had a quick pace off the bat and could tell I got slower as the morning went on. It was DARK... I need a headlight on my bike and a mount for my phone on the handlebars so I can see my bike computer so I can keep track of my pace and time. I rode...and rode...and rode...the sun got higher and higher. It was a lot of fun actually. I stopped once to get a drink of water and jumped back on the bike to finish it off. I hit 20 miles right at 7:30am. It felt so good...but man I was tired! It was just so draining. I think I need to wait until after riding to eat breakfast so I can recoop some energy. We'll see tomorrow. I'm hoping to do the same thing tomorrow. We'll see. So, after that, I went and did some work and got a lot done. I am taking half a day off tomorrow since I have to work on the weekend. I'm going to visit my pulminologist to get my sleep apnea machine data checked out and get looked at again. Time for my 6 month checkup. Should be interesting. Then, Dan, Butch and I are heading out to fly micro planes again after work. I am tired and need to get to bed to get up to ride again. I can't wait to hit the sack. Hope you all had a good night. Goodnight my friends. Catch you on the flipside.
