When I'm training on my bike, sometimes I will be going down a hill and the head wind is so strong that it seems as if I can't pedal hard enough, or fast enough, just to keep the bike in the upright position. This just doesn't seem fair. I worked so hard to get to the top of the hill to enjoy the ride down. When I first started riding, my good friend and trainer, Katherine, would ride behind me. Every time I would stop pedaling, she would yell "DON'T STOP PEDALING!!" Then she would add, "If you stop, you will tire faster and lose your momentum." Life is no different. You can't stop pedaling, no matter how strong the head wind becomes, if you want to finish the ride.
