It all began today part 3

I feel fine ! I have been training like a mad dog over a juicy bone. Averaging around 25km each day for the past week and more to come this weekend. Today (Saturday 11th August) i woke up at 06.00 and was on my bike at 07.00 for a bike ride that lasted until 12.00, with a stop at my grandma’s place to get some more water.

I don’t really know how many kilometers i rode today since i first did a 35km ride, a ride i used to ride a couple of years ago and then after that i estimate that i did 25 or 35km more before ending up at home. I really need a cycling computer, so that i know how far i have ridden. I feel like taking a ride later on today again, since i don’t feel tired at all.

One thing however is boring, because i have no one to ride with and it’s really boring, but hopefully i’ll run into someone and just tag along. This coming week i’ll be riding however with a colleague from work, if he still wants to. I’m going for a ride anyway.

Today it’s just 15 days until i race in the Lilla Roxenrundan, a 43km race, and i feel like it’s going go well, but you never really know until you have started, until then i will keep on training, so that i can do a really good race and get a really good time. I’m aiming for around 1 hour 20min, but if i feel good, i’m going to put the hammer down and go for a even better time. I just hope that it’s not cold outside or rainy.

In under just one hours time i will go for the days second ride, this time just a short tempo or hillclimb exercise, since i really need to improve my climbing skills, because they suck at the moment. But, i think i’m just going to take it easy and just stretch my legs a bit, since i don’t want to fall asleep when i get home.

See you tomorrow or another day !
