So, perhaps when I got to Hines Park and realized I had no socks I shoulda called it a day.... but I am not that smart! Yes, I rode sock-less today. It was a rough ride and I don't really know why. Where the last one I did well, this time was a struggle nearly the whole time. Perhaps I shouldn't go for a ride when I feel like I really, REALLY need a nap. I still got in 14.4 miles - but it was slow. I only stopped one time for a 2 minute breather - so at least it was a decent ride in that respect.
Hines Park was rather deserted today, perhaps because it was a holiday. I am reading a book about serial killers right now, while it was panned pretty bad on Amazon.com, I am enjoying it. The reason I mention it is that it is making me a little paranoid when I am riding along part of this trail today. Crazy isn't it?
On another note...I think I need to learn more about nutrition - I think I am poorly fueled. If anyone has a good source of information for this please let me know! (Book or website would be helpful I think)

LOL, paranoia gotcha? To funny. Great ride though. WooHoo 14 miles, that's awesome. Looking great girl!
I'll have to think of some sites for you. But my best advice for eating is to eat 6 small meals between 300-400 calories each. They should be balanced with both carbs and protiens (with a little fat in there too). And you should eat 1 hour before you bike.
Other then those general rules, I'll try to find something helpful.
