I've not felt 100% for the last couple of days, nothing major nor anything I could put my finger on. Just a bit run down I guess. I didn't fancy going out for a ride yesterday at all so I realised something must be wrong! So I woke this morning feeling no better but thought 'sod it' I'm going out, the ride will lift me!
Mistake!
There was little energy or enthusiasm for it. Climbs I've enjoyed where hard work, no real strength in the legs. Came back after an hour almost wishing I hadn't gone out. It's odd, moments like that you feel like packing it all in!
If I am in low spirits then cycling does lift my mood, but if I'm not physically right then cycling really does find it out. If I could just tell the difference between feeling low & feeling unwell!
