Browsing this forum (the whole board, not just the Canada section) I often feel like a freak. My gas mileage doesn't suck; my gas tank fills all the way; I'm not burning oil; I have no rattles or squeaks; my paint hasn't chipped; my brakes are fine; my stereo is OK; my seats aren't cracked; my VDC hasn't put me in the wall; my back tires didn't aren't bald and my dealer hasn't sodomized me yet.
I think I must be doing something wrong.

My health took two major hits in the last two years, and I lost a lot of ground running-wise (all of it, actually). I'm just trying to get my mileage base back over the winter.
From what I've read here on the forum, I'm wasn't in your league even when I was on my game.

Speed and fitness are relative things. What matters is that you're out there doing your thing. The nice part is there are always some faster and some slower to help the motivation and goals.
G/L with the training and let us know how you're making out.
