Back, but hardly in action

So we're back from vacation. It was nice. I ended up running every day instead of biking. There's a long story behind that, but I'll spare you. So, yeah, I thought I'd head out to Gibb's farm and give that a try. It was a little wet in the beginning section, but I was feeling okay. I made it through the downhill switchbacks and then felt pretty good coming back up. I did an end-o over some roots, and right after that fell at high speed because of the overgrowth. It's my own fault for not attending the Gibb's farm cleanup day :-(. The high speed fall was worse because I fell right on the same elbow as I did on the end-0, so I was hurtin'.
I approached the powerline feeling like I should push myself, so I pushed up the ATV trail and hit the powerline climb with little left in the tank. I made it about halfway up and just couldn't get the pedals to go around. I almost cried. I can't remember ever not being able to get up that hill. The rest of the ride was horrible, I had no push left, no energy, and everything seemed harder than it should have. I arrived hoping to do two laps and then hoping to run into someone else to do a slower lap with, and ended up taking an hour to do one lap and going home.
After the lap I laid down and actually fell asleep for a couple of minutes. I guess staying up late during vacation plus working outside all day today caught up with me and I was just tired. I'm supposed to ride with Joe tomorrow, and will go to bed tonight hoping that it will rain.
