Ahhhhhhhhh....Day 3....

I got up this morning at 5 A.M. to get all of my stuff ready and when I went to put my cycle gear on it wasn't in the dryer as my wonderful hubby said it would be. Turns out all of the cycle gear I had put in the wash last night never got put in the dryer. Just so we are all very clear....Cory so kindly offered to put my clothes in dryer so I could get my beauty rest before my early morning ride. Can't be too mad at him, it was a really nice gesture. Needless to say I had to rewash everything. By the time the clothes were re-washed and dried....I had to go to work. So much for the early morning ride.

I hurried home from work and was able to get 30 minutes in before it got too dark. I am a little disappointed that I wasn't able to at least reach the 10-mile mark, but at least I went. The before-cycle-training me would have said "Oh I can make up for it tomorrow". And then of course I would make up another excuse the following day. My lesson for the day is that it would be a good idea to get some more night riding accessories......it is a jungle out there on the Florida roadways. I was a little nervous that cars couldn't see me even with the bright red light blinking on the back of my back. Just more fun stuff to add to my "wish" list.

Well here are the stats:

Time:                   30:59
Distance (Miles):  7.38
Average Speed:   14.2
Maximum Speed: 21.4
