Out and back to Rt. 1 via Gorman Rd. Plan was to take it easy and relax and have an short cruise. But then you get going and the average is still over 20 ......
Legs were a bit tired hammering up some of the rollers. But it felt good to get out there and put some miles on the TCR. Good average for the kind of route it is.

Stress level is high because wife's family is in town and it makes her all stressed out, which then makes me all stressed out. That and working late means happy times are had by all .......
Well ....... good news is that my 999's should be in by friday (with Ti skewers even!!) can't wait to give those a whirl. I may not BE fast, but I'll LOOK fast! ;)

Woke up for my run and was feeling my foot and while it doesn't hurt at all to walk, the tendon is still sore when you press on it. So I'll take the day off from running today. That means I have to try and squeeze a trainer ride in this evening since I may have to work late.
I'm really going to be under-prepared for both the sprint and Eagleman. The sprint because I do not have the explosive bike speed I need and my running is definitely falling off with the lack of training ability. And for Eagleman I just don't have the volume in my legs to ride 56 miles well. I wasn't going into it thinking I was going to have a blazing time, but now I'm probably just approaching it with a goal just to have a smart race and definitely have fun. I am trying to take something from my Boston experience where it is not just about how fast you can be, but enjoying the event and the race.
Still at work, no workout tonight that's for sure ...... oh well .......

Out and back to Triadelphia's circle again (same route as last ride). Average in the last 6 miles or so went up a whole mph to get the 21. So I must have been hammering around 24 or 25 to get it to go up! Wore my Team Gu stuff. ;)

Arms were tired today, felt like form was down a notch because of that.

Aiden's christening today, so super busy cleaning the house and making food for the party afterwards - hence the stress level.
Foot is a bit sore from the run yesterday. Plan is to get a bike ride in after the busy day. Supposed to be mostly sunny in the low 70 range.
No ride, had a good time with the party.

Out and back on 216. Tried to keep the pace even but not hard. Still concerened about the foot, but it didn't bother me at all on the run. We'll see how it feels later in the day.

Processing your request, please wait...

Did one of the big loops around the hood at a decent pace to see how the foot held up. Seems to be okay for right now. It has been later on in the day that it has bothered me other times, so we'll see how it goes.
