Today I need to push myself.

I need to feel the strain in my muscles. Be dizzy from exertion. Ride to complete and utter depletion. I need to go hard until the sun goes down. Ignore my body's pleading to slow or or ease up. I need to ride until I can barely walk, stumbling, an empty shell...

...because yesterday I ate like Ralpie May at an all you can eat buffet.
