Water Is Life, But Sangria Is The Spice Of Life… Tuesday, August 26 2014 Day 18

Distance: 26.85 Miles

Pedaling Time: 2 Hours 27 Minutes 

Avg Speed: 10.9  

Real Time: 6 Hours 45 Minutes

The ride started out with a trip through Anacostia Park and then through the Anacostia River Trail to eventually connect to the trails in Va and lead me to a small trail called the Del Ray trail. This funnels onto the Potomac Yard Trail but today I was tired and dogging it so I decided that enough was enough and headed back home after doing 14 miles. On my way home I called to have my friend meet with me at Nando's so that we could sit out, drink some sangria and eat a quick bite to eat, it was soooo the right call… As I said before, I'm committed to meeting my goal but I'm equally committed to enjoying myself and knowing when to take time to break the monotony of my rigorous biking schedule.

It's funny that I saw the sign "water is life", took the picture but ended up drinking sangria right? Well, it only seemed fitting for me, I've upped my water consumption tenfold in the past month so a glass or three of sangria was just what the doctor ordered and certainly what I needed.
