Back to school

Spring is here (for now), the first race is under the belt, swimming is getting better... I could almost get euphoric! Euphoria is very dangerous, though, so here is an easy four step program to blowing away all euphoria and getting some perspective again:

1. Do a long bike ride after a brisk swim in the morning. For example around the lake.
2. Do it with Matt, who has just gone around the lake and is doing his second lap for a total of 10-11hrs and 360km in one day and is still riding a nice little 32 average in the wind.
3. Sit in his wheel and start suffering.
4. Realize there is more training to do.

I don't know if I should be more impressed by his riding (major respect) or depressed about not keeping up :-).
