This morning, despite the rain which was lightly falling as a drank my "breakfast," I resolutely pedalled to school into the headwind. The ride in to school is usually the easier of the two trips required, and as I pushed myself up and down each hill, I find myself hoping the opposite will be true today.

A challenging ride this morning, but having made it all the way, and finding myself with a few minutes to reflect before the day starts, it seems a worth the effort.
