Ride Description:                                                            

I was a little apprehensive rolling out with the sky looking like it was about to open up so I cut my miles short rather than going all the way up to Cagle Road. I am kind of glad I cut the miles because I felt exhausted and my performance was lagging. Part of it was fighting with the wind on the way north and losing that fight. I believe my indoor training this week had an impact on my legs feeling fatigued and the other part was not getting enough sleep during the work week. When I got home all I could think about was taking a nap and within a few seconds laying on the bed I was out for a couple of hours.

Despite these things I am still happy that I was able to get out for a couple of hours.
