This is kind of funny. Now that the cycling season is winding down, I’m getting really excited about racing again. I’ve had some really good rides lately and am enjoying my time on the bike. I’ve also had too much free time to watch racing and look at new gear. This is a good sign though… already being excited about it before I’ve started prepping for the new season makes me confident that I will have the same eagerness come April.
In other news, my precious Vittoria shoes are on their last legs. They’ve served me well for about 3 years but they’ve stretched and are wearing through. I’m not quite sure what I want to get, as I’ve never really been shopping for them before. That is, I got my first shoes when I was a complete newbie and didn’t really know what I was doing. We’ll have to see… I don’t want to downgrade so I’ll be looking for a carbon sole. Maybe Sidis? I don’t know.
Also, I’m working on getting my eating habits back on track. I’ve been avoiding fast food and I’ve been baking a weeks worth of chicken on the weekends so that I have healthy food available when I’m busy. My weight is in a good place (~130lbs), I’ve been getting lots of sleep, and I’ve got lots of energy. Overall, things are going very well.
I’m excited!
