Day 7
20 miles. Beautiful day here in the greater Phoenix Metro. First ride in a couple of weeks. Triggers are weird. I'm used to slamming a 24 Steal Reserve after I ride and 5 minutes in I start craving the end of the ride and how that malted high octane sh! would be. Halfway through ride I thought "Gee I'm near my Buddy Steve's... He always drinks beer all weekend.... I could stop by and just have a couple and be fine to ride home (this despite the fact that having a "few" was a contributing factor to me breaking my collar bone a couple years ago while biking. Focused instead on posting here. My mind is sick.

Hang in there EW! I am glad you came back to hang with like minds. The good thing is we can get better if we want it bad enough. Sometimes it helps if I let go and give it to someone or something else for a while. Then all I have to do is BREATHE!
Done. It was weird on the drive back I had this really really good feeling come over me that lasted for about 30 seconds. I then felt I wanted to cry. Now I back feeling kinda flat.
