Bikes were not meant to go uphill

I have been training all week. I did a bike ride on Tuesday or Wednesday, a run by the river on Friday and today I did a 2 1/2 hour trail run/walk followed by a 10 mile bike ride. Wow. It took me a while to recover from today's workout. This was my first ride going up hills and I seriously think that bikes were not meant to go up - only down. WHEW!!! I thought my legs were going to fall off. I'm going to be a little sore tomorrow.

One thing I have discovered now that I'm training again it how much I love being out in nature. The first time out on my bike I saw three snakes and a mama deer and her baby. Today I saw a HUGE millipede with orange legs and a chipmunk with it's cheeks so full of something, I thought they were going to burst.

I think it's time for bed. Good night.
