2 hour ride

Today I went for a quick ride down Marine Drive and back for about 2 hours. I am trying to learn how to balance my training with being mom at the same time. I had a hard time convincing myself that it was OK for me to go out for a bike ride today. I timed it with E'llee's nap which was perfect. After she fell asleep I went out for a ride. I was taking a shower after my ride when she got up. Perfect timing!

For longer rides I'll probably go early in the morning, when it gets a bit warmer and just miss morning time with her.

This weekend my goal was to get in my workouts, and eat controllably. I definitely got my workouts in and did pretty well with my eating even with going out this morning for breakfast. I ate until I felt satisfied. I do admit that I wouldn't eat the scramble again because it didn't feel good in my stomach long term. So next time I'll try something else. Tonight I seem to be needing to replace more calories because I had an early dinner after my ride and have had a couple snacks since. I have been also drinking lots of water to give me a full feeling.

So overall a good weekend. Nice and balanced I think.

Tomorrow is date night so I'm going to have to figure out my intent for that.
