Yesterday, the weather was so nice that after the BF got off work we decided to go for a ride instead of our typical evening walk - just so happened I'd already posted for the day, so incorporating that into today's post.
Today's Zwift event was another race. I swear I'm going to stop doing these (one of these days). Ugh, I am a pool of sweat. Send a janitor to mop me up off the floor, please.

My legs are still dead from that 44 mile race. Yesterday and today both hurt. Yesterday was at least fun - today was a cadence-targeted workout, which always makes me shriek.
But hey, well over halfway to run 1 completion.

Today was a swim day, so rides to and from the pool. Plus a meetup, because why not.
And then a bonus ride because I wanted enough caloric space to have 2 thick slices of homemade chicken pot pie tonight instead of just one. 🤪

Meetup today! Good fun, and one of our people just got the Tortoise and Hare socks in Zwift. We're saving the celebrating until another one of our guys gets the socks that make your bike spit fire from its rear wheel, though, so we can all zip along like a rolling ball of fiery fury.

I did more running than cycling for the past few day but did both yesterday. I've also trying yoga to loosen me out and improve my posture. It's a 30 day Yoga with Adriene and I'm on Day 6. Never done yoga before. Todays lesson taught me I have a no lower stomach muscles and my lower back is very weak and tight.1 -
@Mari33a Wow, wish you luck with yoga! Some of those poses can be ridiculous. I also had a lot of core strength issues (namely due to spine injuries and what not), but implementing daily core exercises for the last couple years have really, really helped. There's a very simple 7-day cycle that I do that has helped immensely.
Today was a meetup day. Always a lot of fun on Zwift with this far-flung crew.

Zwift's climb portal is absolutely no joke. Especially when you're doing Col de la Madone at 125% real world gradient on a safety bike.

Hi I love this challenge, I was thin when I took up cycling I was also 24. But I’ve bicycled in 48 states.
In 2019 I pledged to ride every day for the month of April it didn’t have to be fast or far. When I finished I went for may. This is day 1805, I rode April 8 11 miles inside in 60 minutes.
Cycling hasn’t made me thin but I’m 68 take no prescription drugs.
If you are obese if you have go to the doctor for any reason they tell you you are obese.
I ride to appointment, wearing one of my “I biked across “ ride t shirts.
My resting heart rate is real low my blood pressure is better than the doctor’s. They skip the exercise lecture.

@jjlbrick Great to hear about your health! It's fantastic that a fun activity like cycling has such grand health benefits!
Today was an easy day - just climbed Cipressa in Zwift at 125% real-world gradient for an easy 10 mile ride. Tomorrow's the Zwift Epic Race, and while I won't be going full out, it's still going to be a gnarly effort for 50+ miles with over 2,000 feet of elevation gain. WeEeEeEeEe!!

@ashleycarole86 LOL But what a fun reason for not riding!! (with the exception of getting sick, that is!!) Hope you had a wonderful trip. And no worries, there's still /plenty/ of time to finish this challenge!
Today was Epic Race Day in Zwift. Ugh. Glad to have that done, though!! (and actually, I'd rather do this than virtual Tourmalet
)
