Set two new records today…

Well….on a day when I thought I was going to be able to take off with the t-storms that were forecast, the rain moved out early so I got to get out and torture myself some more…and with that, I set two more new records on the bike….7 days in a row of 30+ mile rides and the most total miles in a week ever with 214.7 miles replacing the 205 miles of the old record that I set a couple of years ago. Until this year, I had never done more than 7 30 milers in a year let alone a week…and the last mileage record was an anomaly since it included my 105 mile one day record and I never got close to that again…until now. I am a little proud to still have the will and capability to keep doing this stuff at my advanced age and that has gotten me started on what I’m going to do for this year’s birthday feat of strength…and it popped into my head that maybe double my age in miles?  That would probably be the last one of those that I do since I really don’t have anything to prove anymore…so why do I keep trying to prove it? Oh, well…all I know is that I frickin hurt everywhere right now and I’m going to need to take something for it or I won’t be able to move later…and no, it’s not a good pain…it’s just pain and that is a pain….
