Back in the Saddle ... Kinda.

The cold front that triggered my sinus problems finally gave way to warmer weather, if you consider the mid 40’s warm. In any event, I felt a little better this morning and could actually breathe without too much problem, so I decided to go out to Clear Creek to do a couple of laps on the trail. I didn’t get three miles into my ride when my chest started to hurt a little and I felt winded. To be perfectly honest, I felt horribly out of shape. It was at that moment my two-lap ride turned into a one-lap trip. It appears I’m not 100% yet.

Rather than push my luck, I settled into a somewhat leisurely pace and just tried to enjoy being outside for a change. The weather on Monday is supposed to be dry, and it‘s a holiday, so I will probably go back to Clear Creek for another lap or two.

But at least you're out. Especially in this weather. I don't know how it is there, but we've got rare snow here. Not that it's sticking, or anything, but it's definitely cold across the southeast.
