The habits are resistant to breaking.

There were plenty of reasons to avoid riding this morning.  It was a short night.  I didn’t sleep well.  It is sooooo early.  I have meetings scheduled all day and getting a little extra work done early in the morning is quite attractive.

I’m glad my brain doesn’t really engage until sometime mid ride.  That was true this morning, and it was a nice morning.  I worked hard.  I pushed through the heavy legs and pounding heart.  I conveyed some helpful advice for a friend.  I rode with Jeff who was out with the group for the first time since crashing and breaking his clavicle.  I watched a nice sunrise.

The meetings still happened.  I didn’t get work done before them.  It was early, but that’s when the ride begins and the sun rises.

It was a good start to a busy day.
