Feelin' it...

My bike workout kicked my butt (or rather, my quads) today. It was 1.5 hours on the trainer, went by surprisingly fast, and even rather enjoyable. It has been chilly here, so I prefer a trainer ride to an outdoor ride on cold days like today. The workout wasn't difficult, I had no problem accomplishing it, but the fact that I'm so sore after only an hour and a half of riding shows how out-of-shape I've become since Ironman. Speaking of out-of-shape, I hate trying on clothes in the weeks following Christmas and New Years - too much rich food and too little exercise means EVERYTHING is a little too tight for comfort. Just another reason why I'm excited about training. Tomorrow: hitting the pool for the first time in AGES!
