Lately, Saturday programming has been crushing my soul. When I looked at what was on the agenda for today, I instantly dreaded it. I have not been mentally in a place where I am wanting to push the heavier weights…
Outdoor Ride
With the weather so nice and me feeling a little amped up from being on the Peloton, I thought it would be fun to actually go outside for once. I don’t even remember the last time I went for a…
