Every journey begins with a line in the sand. This is mine. Not looking back, not waiting for the perfect moment. Where I am today is not where I’ll stay.

And if you’re reading this β€” neither should you.

In my fitness journey I encountered an #lgbtq #zwift club and I thought "Hey, let's join their Zwift Racing League team. Sounds fun right?

A. It's an amazing amount of fun, if you can, I recommend it, zwift is ok on its own, but it's so much more than ok, amazing in fact, when you have friends to ride with.

B. I am not a Cat B racer, I am Cat C, keeping up is hard, real hard, but every day I get a little fitter, a little faster, and I climb the finishing ranks one spot at a time.

C. Looking at like, overall states and category power comparisons, it's obvious that it's the weight holding me back. Unfortunately I know going on a deficit is going to gradually tank my performance, but I'm okay with that, because once I get back to maintenance I'll be fitter than ever. πŸ™‚

D. Has anyone upgraded their Zwift Hub with the single sprocket and click shifting yet? If so, how are you liking it?

It's still quite heavy and a big challenge. But I'm moving to the 50 lbs / 23 kilos at the shoulder press.
A while ago I struggled with 18 kilos and I can do those now, πŸ’ͺ🏼 so I'm definitely making progress.
Slow! Sure... But I'm definitely OK with it as I need to be more careful with the Fibromyalgia and Hypermobility. 😊
Let's do this! πŸ’ͺ🏼

Tried to go heavier with adding an extra 5 kilos. Managed 6x πŸ˜‚. Changed the 2* 2,5 kilos for 2* 1,25 ones. Let's see if I get get 8x in now.
It's all trying and seeing what I'll he able to do. No progress if I don't try new weights.

I did my best again today! Just a small round with Arwen left... So I'll probably just hit the 33k. I've kit heard anything of my downstairs neighbors, so I do hope they aren't disturbed by my walks on the mill. 😊
Very happy with yesterday's (34k) and today's steps.
Tomorrow and Thursday will be a bit harder to get more steps in. But hey, I got the mill so let's crush this! πŸ’ͺ🏼
