It seems my energy drink mix might not be the culprit for my struggle two days ago. Even with plain water last night, I couldn’t push past an hour of pedaling. It felt like the longest hour ever, especially since I was riding indoors due to the relentless winter weather in Missoula. It’s unusual for Mount Sentinel to have snow in June, let alone snow that accumulates over three days.
Despite the cold and rain this Thursday morning, it’s group ride night. I checked in with everyone, and it looks like some are up for our scheduled ride. So, I’ll be there too, with my snow bike, prepped for snow, mud, and raging streams. Hoping I don’t bonk after 45 minutes like last time. My heart rate data this morning seems promising.
Now, the question is, who gave me this cold? I’m on a mission to find out!
