What do you do when you have spent the whole day being supremely unmotivated? Give yourself a project and get to it! My motivational project involved finding a martini recipe that would use the last of the Kahlua. Meet the White Chocolate Mocha Martini!
Today, I took the first spin back towards riding shape. For various reasons, I had all but given up on the bike by the end of last year, even going so far as to consider selling both my girls. I did not do that, but I made the conscious choice to step back. This past few weeks, the urge to ride has been there, so I asked my other half to ride with me today. It felt really good to be back on my Diverge riding next to Andy. I know that my butt is going to hurt tomorrow and my legs will be sore, but I intend to be back on the bike again (provided the rain holds off). It will be slow and steady until I feel like I have made it all the way back and Team Kassel can REALLY ride again.
I realize that it is almost April, but Laura wants Pumpkin Muffins for breakfast for this coming week. So, I thawed some frozen pumpkin puree from last fall and made muffins. You do what you have to do.
