Just call me chicken

I was supposed to up the bike ride to 10 miles today. Didn't happen. Couldn't do it. I used the excuse that I forgot my water. AGAIN. Which I did, and not on purpose. And of course, once I realized I had forgotten it, I was totally thirsty. As I was doing the 5 mile loop I was thinking, I could still do another lap, I could really do it, I can, I can. Then I got to were my truck was parked, and well, my leg was numb, and I was DYING of thirst. So I stopped. Totally chickened out. The place were I ride is a 5 mile loop and once you get started there is no short cut, unless you turn around, and there isn't really anywhere to turn around, sooooo. If I would have started that second lap, I would have had to finish it. I should stop being so chicken! As for the leg, I'm guessing that it has to do with my back. Not sure, but the toes were completely numb when I got off the bike, not a fun thing. And I'm having trouble sitting, because my tailbone hurts so darn much. Nothing like going to my calc class for 3 hours when it hurts to sit down. Oh, this is going to be fun!
