102mi bike ride.  One guy joined me for the full century ride, and it was his first.  It went really well.  I was a little tired from drinking all day on Saturday for the 7pm game, but I'm definitely glad I went on the ride.  The course was fairly flat, there were a few hills, but none that were really bad.  I went through the horse farm area south of Gainesville and its really quiet and pretty.  Full of Manors and Estates with enormous houses and stables.

After the ride I took a couple hour nap and had a hard time waking up.  The weekend really drained my energy.  I don't see how people can train for Ultras and Ironmans who have full time jobs.  As a student, I can nap any time I want out side of class time.  I guess I'll find out soon enough.  I have my first 50mi Ultra in February and I start work in January.

Easy 5mi.  My knee hurts from hitting it yesterday.  Theres a nice circular bruise.  It's uncomfortable walking, but running it feels okay.

Race was at 6pm, the weather was nice.  I started slow and dropped about 10s/mi off my pace until the last mile where I dropped 20s.  I felt great the whole way and could have run faster, but I didn't need to since I haven't been doing speed work.  I was 4th/64 in my age group and was pretty happy with that since I just moved up age groups today, and the 25-29 ladies are fast.
