Biking or lack of

With working full time and raising two kids, reality is setting in this past week with my lack of time to bike. I accept this lack of 'personal time' as part of family life and would NOT change a thing as I am so blessed to have the wife I do and 2 precious boys. My less is more training plan worked last summer for the most part but riding 1-2 hrs / week the entire last month is catching up with needing the miles in the legs to compete in a 2.75 race next week and a stage race mid May.

Hard not to be envious of friends riding to Lake Louise and back and hours on end around tunnel and minnewanka. But they are single or do not have families.

Have to keep hammering out the time I have on the trainer while hoping to hit the pavement here soon.

Love my new bike fit, feel so comfortable while on the trainer this week.

Have started my plyometric jumps / squats to increase the fast twitch fiber strength, the most advantageous 3 minute work out hands down.
