Rode to SR56 to US301. There was another ride stopped at US301. I was getting ready to start back and so was he. I let him go first. I realized I forgot to get some fresh gum so I stopped again. Then about a half mile later, an alligator rushed in front of me. I had to swerve to avoid running over his tail. He was surprised as I was and couldn't decide which way to go. He was only about 5-6'. I rode around him and pedaled hard trying to catch up to the other cyclist. My adrenaline was running full stop but I couldn't catch up.

Carrot weather lies to me and said wind was south. So I rode to Tampa Palms. The wind was light so I didn't register the lie until I was riding home. The wind definitely felt against me. It was but it was light so not too bad. Except I was tired by then. And my feet hurt the whole time. My saddle was OK. A man passed me to turn right in front of me so I had to brake. A woman almost ran me down turning left and I had to brake hard. Jerks

This should have been a better week with the holiday weekend. But it rained all day Saturday and I only got in a mini ride. For some reason, Andy doesn’t like to go out on Independence Day and skipped swimming. So I got in a good ride on Sunday.

I think I found a way to cheat my move ring. I had only ridden about 15 minutes when my watch notified me of a goal made. I looked and saw I completed my move ring! What? It usually takes me 45-50 minutes to do that. Maybe my sleep was even more restless than I thought. Then I turned onto MPB and heard the mile tick. But it was only 4 miles and biking clicks every 5 miles. I looked and saw I was on walking. Oops. I switched to biking and continued. So my theory is that Apple Watch thought I was walking and went 3 miles in 15 miles so I must be working out harder despite my heart rate being normal.  Walking clicks every mile but I didn't hear the first three clicks. That is because this Series 6 is not that loud. My Series 4 has much better sounds. 
The rest of the ride was uneventful.

Apple Watch monthly goals

Yesterday, I failed my monthly goal for Apple Watch. It was only the third day of the month and I blew it.

My goal was the double my move goal everyday for the month. I love when I get that goal because I typically do double my move goal everyday without really trying.

But yesterday it rained. And rained. And rained some more. We got almost 3” of rain. And even though I can and have ridden in the rain, I do not go out with thunder and lightning. And there was enough of that that kept me home most of the day.

I did get out for a short ride, only 6 miles. It rained for most of the ride and even thundered some. I decided not to tempt fate more than I already had and rode home. I closed the exercise and move rings and was happy.

However, I failed to think about doubling my move goal. I realized this would be a problem about 8pm. I tried to move around the house doing some small tasks. What I really needed to do was walk a mile but I didn’t put on a bra after my shower and did not want to put one on that late in the day. Lazy.

Housework might work but I couldn’t run the vacuum because dad and Ryan were already in bed. I seriously thought about cheating and putting my Apple Watch on Andy’s wrist while he danced to his music. But I would need to change the band and find one that was large enough for his wrist. I was too lazy even for that.

At 8:43, I was at 723 calories and needed to get to 800 before bed at 10pm. I did some more walking around and eventually got to 762 calories before I gave up.

It feels really odd to have failed this early in the month. There have been months when I have tried and failed in the last days. I am not sad nor disappointed in my myself. In the end, the goals and faux badges mean nothing. They do motivate to keep moving which is the end goal.

Today, the sun took its time to come out but the rain had stopped. I rode my bike for almost 30 miles. And by 6pm, I had gotten to 1,600 calories. But Apple Watch doesn’t allow for rest days.

No one cares but me.

Southern wind so I started for Flatwoods. But then I remembered we got a lot of rain last night so it might be under water in spots. I continued to Tampa Palms. 
I marked the laps so I could see how far each loop is. The long loop to Amberly is 8.16 miles and the shorter loop to Tampa Palms Blvd is 5.75 miles. Now with the rain season here, I can do Tampa Palms instead of Flatwoods. 
The best part was my recovery ice cream.

20210530 cycling

An average week for riding. With the warmer temperatures, I want to ride earlier on the weekends. So that means so long rides because I have to be back to make lunch for Andy. But this is OK. I use my need for biking to come before my other household tasks. Balance.

One of those days I just wasn't in to it. I felt a few drops and thought I wouldn't mind if it rained and I had to cut the ride short. 
Mother Nature read my mind and it started raining in earnest. Not heavy but enough that I didn't want to ride another 35 minutes with it. I turned and went home.
