Things I Often Neglect-April 2023

1. Stretching. How is one supposed to stretch when there are exactly 7 minutes between the end of a run and a meeting? Seriously. How?
2. Grocery shopping. I’m sorry, but now that I know about Instacart, I just can’t.
3. Kick sets, stroke work, and flip turns. It’s important to know who you are. I am a triathlete. We don’t fly or flip and we should be concerned about saving our legs for what is coming.
4. Wearing sunscreen. I have no excuse.
5. Meal prep. I say the phrase, “non-dinner dinner,” and the people in my house get it. We are fine.
6. My hair. With my 7 minutes, I can only do so much. I choose soap, lotion, clothes, and lip gloss.
7. Learning bike maintenance. Every winter I utter blatant lies about how I am going to spend time in the bike shop learning all the things. Every. Winter.
8. Getting the mail. I just don’t care. I’m quite shocked the mail carrier has never sent someone to make sure we are alive.
9. Leftovers. Um, I made a meal. Let’s focus on that.
10. Taking time to celebrate the wins. I should really do better here….maybe this winter?

Courses on Zwift-March 2023

If you aren’t riding on Zwift, you should be. Zwift can make winter in the midwest not suck, as bad.
