In my last post, I mentioned that my training was derailed due to a bout of illness. Well, I feel much better now and as far as I’m concerned, the double century is still on.  (Wait, did I just say that?)  My mileage decreased significantly over the past week due to fatigue, etc.; for instance, on Saturday, I was supposed to do an ultra-century (100+ miles) and only succeeded in pedaling 22 miles.  That is 10% of what I am supposed to do in less than 2 weeks.  Oh well, I’ll just do my best in the time I have left.  My SAT said that I could push back the date of my double century, but I do not want to do that.  I really really want to do the double on the date I originally scheduled, which is February 28.  I want to enter the month of March without worrying about scheduling long rides!  I want the freedom of having the time to do other things and I want the satisfaction of having completed a goal on time.  Call me stubborn, call me inflexible, call me maybe?
