No matter how bleak it seems and right now it seems awfully bleak there will always be a beautiful morning to wake up to. During the election cycle the common ask is “are you better off than 4 years ago” For the most part I don’t think they really want the answer or at least the honest answer.
4 years ago the pandemic had shut my business down. There were no races and therefore no need for my services. Since then my business doubles every year. So the answer to that question is absolutely I am better off today than 4 years ago. The government has nothing to do with that. My hard work and dedication to the work is why I’m better off.
Four years ago my only transportation was an E-bike. I made that choice because the car was a lemon and cost me greatly. I gave up the car and for four years my wife and I shared her electric car. During the day while she was at work I used the E-bike for groceries, coffee meetings and going to run spots. This past April after saving money every month I walked in a paid cash for my truck. I’m better off today than 4 years ago.
Workout Yesterday
Run - 20 min-2 miles. I have a 2 mile look that can be extended to 3, 4 and 5 miles should I care to do that. It starts straight up hill. I used the charge up that hill. Today I take my time and let my heart adjust to the grade of the hill. With age comes patience.
Ride - 26 min on the trainer. After the afternoon dog walk when it was dark outside I jumped on the trainer. My trainer is a Cervelo P6. I did a workout two sets of 4 minutes. 20 seconds on 40 seconds off. For the on I held over 350 watts. I used Wahoo videos for this workout. I like them because there are 6 different videos of this kind of effort. This was level 1. Level 6 is over an hour of multiple sets of this.
It’s a good life…..
