Today was brutal. They decided to spring a surprise meeting on us this morning so I didn't actually hit the ground until about 7:15. I finished about 12:30. That may not sound too bad, but man it was hot. I went through a 1.5-liter CamelBak, plus another 40 ounces of water and 30 ounces of "gatorade." And I had forgotten my bandanna, so I didn't have anything to wipe the sweat off my face. Just as I finished and was loading my stuff up for the trip back to the office, my cell phone rang. It was my wife.
"Be careful," she said, "It's very hot outside."
I was speechless.
Awwww. She loves you.
ReplyDeleteAfter putting on my riding boots, chaps, heavy sweater, leather jacket, gauntlets, full face helmet and riding glasses my wife would usually say "be careful" as I leave. They mean well.
