In a conversation with Alex the other day, I explained to him that I was back to some sort of situation where I felt I could hurt myself on a bike in a shed to make myself better on a bike.
You can only hurt yourself in so many ways and in so many directions at a time.
Some people hurt themselves to take away a pain somewhere else (that’s what I do), but when you’re struggling so much in one direction, it’s almost impossible to hurt yourself in another.
The ability to climb into the shed at 6.30am and punish myself for an hour as the sun comes up is a good thing, not a bad thing.
The alternative is to ‘hurt’ myself over time by sneaking to the shop and buying 1kg of Diary Milk and eating it in 10 minutes.
