dysgumption

Without being at all specific, I had some disturbing lack of what I will call “gumption” in what I will call “the bedroom” last night.

It was not what you’d call erectile disfunction. That part was fine. I was just too tired to convert a good start into a grand finish.

It’s kind of messing with my head game a little bit because I see no reason why a 34 year old man shouldn’t be able to ride three miles to the pool, swim a mile and a half, then ride four miles home and still be able to put on a reasonable show later that evening.

I may be old. I may be overtrained. I have no idea which it is or if its a combination of both, but I do know that it’s only going to get worse in both cases because in a few months from now I’ll be training easily twice as much as I am now and more.

And by then I’ll be 35.
