Today was another endurance ride at the crosstown club. Here's how it works: the first month (Jan) was 90 minutes, Feb jumped up to a 2-hr ride, March is 2.5 hrs and April is 3 hrs. These rides are the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of the month. Darcy is the instructor and she is awesome. She makes the time fly by - we break it up and do intervals or drills, we watch the TV series "24" or we listen to a comedian. She doesn't talk the entire time, just enough. I really enjoy these rides and am increasing my endurance all at the same time. Perfect!
Well, today we had a sub... This guy talked the entire 2 hour class, I never knew what was coming next, he chatted with 2 women and the rest of us could only hear one side of the conversation (through his microphone). Let's just say it was very good mental training. It was tough. I think that is probably just what I needed.
But thank god Darcy will be back next time!
