And then I feel guilty leaving to train or race. And my results suck. I haven't cracked the top 6 in a race yet. And I haven't done a single ride over 3 hours since March, and only 4-5 rides over 1:45. Probably why my results suck.
Schools out in four days, so hanging on hoping that'll turn things around for the summer races, but pretty much decided I'll be about done by August when school starts again.
My pity party for the week.
I hear you. I field endless "come do this race, that race..." stuff from everyone. Teammates, group ride dudes, etc... Meanwhile I know full well they'd quit racing if they had 1 kid, much less twins. It is (unintentional on their part) crazy frustrating.
I'm burning the candle at both ends, the middle, and it's resting on a hotplate.
