Frosted

 Rough day on the bike today. The weather warmed up nicely so it wasn't that.  Mostly I was in a funk to be riding alone again.  A couple vicious looking dogs and some crazy wind left me winded and worried last week.  They had me looking at how far I have to go, and took my eyes off the fact that I am turning my "I can'ts"  into "I dids."  

So starting out today I felt like I had an insurmountable mountain in front of me and I was alone.  Sigh.  Second I feel like I am racing time and MUST RACK UP MILES!!!  Double sigh.

Last night, I contemplated going to the Y this morning instead of riding after my friend cried "frost warning" and opted not to ride today. Looking back, I probably should have done that. Yes it was a gorgeous afternoon, but I think I need some cross training, not so much for my body but for my soul.  

All was not lost however;  I did stop and treat myself to Beans and Cream.  The best part?  They are having their anniversary celebration and mochas were just $1.70.  I got out there, got a few miles in, and stopped and smelled the coffee beans.
