"How You Describe Joy?"

Today I went downstairs to ride on the trainer and at some point noticed this mess on the floor beside me.



Obviously Kylie had been down there earlier, probably keeping Claudette company when she worked out and this was the result.  Not with any real enthusiasm, but for a second the thought passed through my mind that Kylie never cleans up after herself, and that Claudette never makes her.  I of course keep those kids totally disciplined!!
Anyway, I never thought any more about it until near the end of my 60 km ride when I actually read what was on the board.  How do you describe joy?













To the moon and up!!!!!!

The ride itself was not as joyful.  I rode the last 60 kms of Ironman Canada but it took me a long freakin time.  It is so hard for me to judge my bike fitness compared to last time around.  I have some old notes on my previous blog from when I was riding the trainer uptown but I'm pretty sure they are not relevant because no one had any idea how to calibrate the machine properly.  I know I have it set up properly now but my speed is very slow compared even to riding outside last summer.  I have to take it on faith that it is only because I am working so hard every damn day.  Hopefully I will be able to get outside within the next month in order to get a better feeling.  Back in 2009 I was riding outside by Mar 5th!
