Riding and kayaking on Saturday took a lot out of me. My knees bothered me all of Sunday and part of Monday, so I took a break. I’m curious if my knees will always hurt using a sit-in kayak or if my body will get used to the seating position. Only time will tell.
I finally dragged myself out of bed at a reasonable hour: 6am. As much as I hate to admit it, I am a morning person. All I have to do is learn to accept that and always get up at 6.
It was nice to get in a good hour of riding before getting ready for work. The ride out to the causeway was pleasant, though I hate taking it slow to warm up when I know I only have an hour. Thankfully there was a bit of a breeze, even on the tree-protected roads.
Which meant there was a nasty headwind on the causeway itself. But headwinds mean more work and more work means stronger legs. I did the causeway twice, then came home. I’d rather have stayed out riding, but it’s better to have time to cool off before jumping in the shower.
I have lots to do at work today; hopefully having ridden this morning will keep me energized throughout the day!
