Riding the Waves

Friday. The last two training sessions of the week. The funny thing is, I feel better today than I did yesterday.

If training is really a roller coaster, then today feels like a smoother ride. The waves of good and bad, the cycle of progress and pain — it’s all here. And then there’s the list of never-ending injuries, which never quite seems to get shorter.

I know what I signed up for. At this point, it’s just time to get on with it.

I’ve got a nice weekend to look forward to — a couple of days in the mountains, wandering aimlessly with my camera. A real brain break.

But for now, it’s time to train.
