I had to archive this great quote from the day. Saturday is my scheduled day off but I had/have an interest in joining a beginner bike ride in the morning and perhaps swimming in the afternoon. Swimming runs the risk of interfering with a shoulder workout on Sunday. The trainer is pretty adamant that I have a rest day.
I said, "Rest is important, yes, but isn't it OK sometimes to sacrifice performance to feed the soul."
To which he replied "No because the soul is greedy and if it were up to you, you would eat chocolate for every meal. Sometimes you've got to use your head."
BURN!
So what will I do? Still conflicted and the ride leaves at 8 am.
