How is it possible that I'm less tired after 70 miles and four and a half hours on the bike than I was when I started? Honestly, I had zero energy this morning, and it took way too much effort to drag my butt out the door. Then I go ride 70 miles, have energy to ride the last hour significantly faster than the previous 3 (18mph avg for the last hour with lots of time spent over 20mph vs. 15mph avg for the rest of the ride), and still have spring in my step when I get back to the house. Crazy.
Full confession... it's been a few hours since I got done, and NOW I'm definitely tired.
Here's a link to the route, if anyone is interested. I essentially did a giant loop of Missoula. East, then south, then west, then back. Click here for the route map.
And, some pictures:
