squirrelly on the bike trail

Sitting here with my delicious recovery beverage -- Vita Coco Coconut Water with Pineapple. Didn't have the strong legs today but glad to get a ride in anyway. What a difference warmer weather makes. A little too warm at the end I think. The sad thing today was hitting a squirrel. I really hate that. Why do they spazz out at the last second as you're riding by and jump into your front tire?

What a gorgeous time of year! Birds are signing and so much is in bloom. The downside is allergies. I used Simply Saline nasal spray and downed a Claritin D before setting off for a 20 mile ride yesterday. I have to do this year round now as my allergies have been wicked this year. I've also had asthma for the first time in my adult life. Yesterday's ride was the best I've had in a long time with regard to allergies. Usually, my eyes start weeping and my nose runs the entire ride. Attractive! Exercising is so much more enjoyable when you can see & breathe.

Do you have allergies? Have you found ways to effectively manage them?
