Today was one of those days where there was an obstacle at every turn.
I initially thought (yesterday) about riding my bike to work today, but opted not to because I didn't want to do the planned 10 or so miles on Saturday on tired legs. Actually, more than that - I didn't want to go into my run form evaluation on Sunday on tired legs. So then during the day I thought about doing a quick hour long ride after I got home before it got dark. Then when I got home I decided to do a trainer workout instead - but then realized that I left my wireless mouse at the office (I need to use it to keep the screen from going blank on the laptop I use to watch netflix with) - so I went back to the idea of doing an outdoor ride. However, by this time daylight was trickling away and I'd just barely be able to make it back home in time. Then, when I went to get my bike, I saw the back tire was flat (I had put the repaired tire back on the other day) - so apparently the patch didn't hold. I threw in a new tube, and got a few miles out before deciding that daylight was slipping a little too fast, and then decided to head back home. In the end I think I just didn't pump up the tire the other day, because I couldn't locate a leak in the tube when submerged (if it is flat tomorrow, I'll just toss the damn thing and quit screwing with it)
So in the end, a whopping 4.something miles on the bike - barely enough to even write about. But I at least got just under two miles in for the runstreak, and to bring my total to just over 22 miles for the week - so with the 10-11 miles planned for tomorrow, I'll hit my weekly mileage goal.
