day one of blah

this morning it was just me and my bike versus the urge to ride harder than i should two days before i run in my first 5K. it was a struggle. i hate riding slow by myself in the dark with no wind to fight and no animals running across the road in front of me. blah! what i hate more is that i have to ride like this again tomorrow. grrrr!
