All the big events I was signed up for are now done for the year. We rode our bikes from Seattle to Portland, did the Spudman triathlon, and rode our bikes around Utah Lake in the ULCER. This week we got to watch a couple stages of the Tour of Utah, which was really cool. But now the big events are done and I have to stop using my “I don’t want to underfuel for the next big event” excuse. It’s time to reinstate the restricted calorie diet. That’s going to be tricky now that we have a Blendtec. It’s so easy to whip up a big smoothie in the morning, but those smoothies have hundreds of calories. I guess I just need to put in more vegetables and less fruits. We’ll see.
