Since my acceptance on the tour, finding time to train on top of my usual Monday night training, has been really hard for me. However, this week was a success! I was able to squeeze in a couple extra days, which got me up to 76 miles. It felt awesome. Some of the rides were tough because the heat is also, really starting to kick in here, but certainly worth it. The wonderful farmers tan that will only get better during the summer has definitely started for me, as well! :)

I think my biggest area of weakness right now is hills. Tallahassee, is a very hilly city which provides a place for great training, but also makes for some really tough rides. Every time we start going up a hill, I tend to drop back. :) It's really frustrating, but I know the harder I push myself and continue to train on them, the stronger I will hopefully get.
