Over spring break I finally went to the doctor to get some help. I had bronchitis. It felt like an elephant sitting on my chest.
We did ride once over the break on the tandem together. It was about 30 degrees and we went 23 miles. I was spent. I slept the rest of the day.
The anti-biotics have finally run there course and I am feeling better. Sunday, which began with snow on the ground turned into glorious sun by mid-day. James, our friend Mike and I went to Yankee Springs trail and rode a lap on our single speed mountain bikes. I finally felt like the elephant was gone.
Yesterday's short run demonstrated that my cardiovasular capacity has diminished in these few weeks. I know it will come back. Ultimately it is not in my strength that this ride will be completed. I am encouraged by the prayers that so many of my fellow riders are posting.
Stay healthy, keep riding!
