I am beginning to feel like I can do this. I appreciate the support and encouragement of friends and family so far. My wife has been very supportive and patient with me and my new found obsession. Yesterday I was having a bit of buyer's remorse having committed myself to such an undertaking. Today though I am feeling better about it.
This morning I did as I have done almost every Wednesday for a month. I woke up, got ready, and hit the road - this time however I was determined to go farther. I focused on keeping a steady speed and tried to stay consistent from start to end. Before I knew it I was back where I started having covered 16 miles in one hour.
Friday I am going to take it a bit easier, do maybe about ten miles or so. Saturday however I am going to try and go for 30 miles. I need to figure out what to eat before and during the ride to sustain my energy. I think that is where I can improve a lot, all the riding I have done to this point has been on an empty stomach without water.
