What do we do when things are off?
You know those days when things simply aren\’t right? You\’re so tired and sleepy that, by the time you can manage to drag yourself out of bed, it\’s too late for your pre-work ride. On top of that, you feel too blah to care!
That\’s how it was with me this morning. I might not feel so sluggish of mornings if it were warmer in here. Being cold saps my energy; and I like to joke that I\’m cold-blooded. I\’m also rather short of sleep lately, which does not help.
See \”When Stop Does Not Mean Go\” in this article. When my head feels stuffy and my energy levels are low, I guess it\’s better to skip riding for a day or two. I might feel better if I irrigated my sinuses; but I probably need an entire new kit.
I hope I feel more perky tomorrow; but unfortunately the forecast is for \”Widespread dense fog\”, with wind 5-10 mph. I\’ve always associated fog with lack of wind, so a forecast for both fog and wind seems a bit odd to me. Day after tomorrow they\’re predicting rain; and winds of 15-25 mph! That doesn\’t bode well for a grocery run.
I guess I\’ll have to set up a bicycle in the trainer; but \”riding\” like that is best reserve for when things are off.
