I'm not gonna lie...


...that was tough. I managed to do a few miles on the unpaved part of my journey on the trail this week. It was about 5 miles of being terrified. There was a lot more bugs too, which was weird. Halfway in there was a gigantic hole in the middle of it, hopefully it was just a rabbit hole. I didn't enjoy the unpaved trail while I was doing it, but later thought that it might be manageable. I had a 30 minute drive there to get nervous about it and a 30 minute drive back feeling ok about it. I spent a little time reading about century rides this week. I'm not so sure that helped. Although all the articles said it was very do-able for most people. Next step is a longer portion of the unpaved, which should happen this weekend.

One of the best parts of the week was going to the zoo with my, almost 2 years old, triplet nephews and niece. (I will refer to them as the "The Trips" from now on.) I didn't feel bad about not biking that night because I think I worked just as hard. It was super hot and lots of sweating took place while chasing them around. They were a riot though!
