I went through my entire first tri season without using it. Then, had brutal chafing after my first spin class, so got some. It is a godsend! Just like bodyglide is a must for running, chamois butter is a must for cycling.<br /><br />Wind on the bike can be brutal. And sometimes, it seems like it changes direction so you have a headwind both ways.<br /><br />I think the real key to getting a lot of veggies in is to make lunch, dinner, or both a vegetable based meal. I'm planning on doing either a stirfry or salad for one of those meals every day. You can easily get 4 servings in like that.<br /><br />I'm not feeling too into raw veggies lately, so I've been roasting them in my toaster oven (mostly because my regular oven is still broken, but it's good for a smaller serving anyways.) Brings out the sweetness in them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07667441608820485935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3660670497459217612.post-33281730135737446312011-11-20T07:48:34.403-06:002011-11-20T07:48:34.403-06:00I came across your blog from another bloggers site...I came across your blog from another bloggers site. I love it! So inspiring! The wind has been craaaaaaazy here in Arkansas too. I realized just how bad it was when I was pushing to go downhill. <br /><br />Veggies: I keep a massive load of veggies prepared and ready to munch on in my fridge so when I want a snack, I can grab celery sticks, baby carrots, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, etc and pair it with some hummus. I’m kind of in love with my veggies and hummus now. :)Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11069371008875502190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3660670497459217612.post-58697464675698961512011-11-19T18:37:36.011-06:002011-11-19T18:37:36.011-06:00Pain in the nether regions is something to keep tr...Pain in the nether regions is something to keep track of. To some extent, a bit of discomfort is expected, and as you get used to more time in the saddle, you can go longer.<br /><br />That said, there are saddles that fit the female anatomy better than others. Actual pain needs to be checked. The solution might be a different saddle. Nobody will laugh at you if talk about the problem at a bike store. They've heard it all before.Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09364395150014197905noreply@blogger.com
