Adaptation...

Change, and balance. They all go hand in hand. You can't have one without the other. Adaptation to a training program requires a change of habits and a shift in the balancing act of life. I know I have adapted when sleep comes fast and deep, I awake when it is time to ride, and the legs are lighter. Change is small - a hour earlier here or there, one less snack during the day. The balance is hard wife, child and work all require a delicate touch. Each one needs attention and time is valuable, love and understanding rule in the world of balance and I am lucky enough to have that in abundance. It still requires a juggling of schedules that would make a clown dizzy. Spring is here, the blistering heat of Summer is far in the distance (at least in the Midwest) and the frigid cold of Winter is all but a memory. Make the most of your stolen minutes and hours to yourself...

enjoy the fresh legs, clean bike, and endless miles because they to will one day be a memory, cross season is only 4 month away.
