Met up with Jon @ Rainbow Gardens today to start a bike ride up the Ogden Canyon. But that was shut down fast by Highway Patrol. So rode down the parkway for a couple miles and then on the way bike I took a nasty spill on the bike. Think I broke my wrist or sprained it very badly. Can't move my arm above my head without pain and major bruising on my hip. So needless to say the bike ride was cut short and so Jon and I drove to the Ogden Finish line to cheer on my brother and friends. Ran a half mile up on grant avenue and came bike.

Was going to run later but I have gotten pretty sore as the day has gone on, hopefully by monday I will be good to go. So anyway I have decided that I am ready to train again with intensity. I have looked up and down on workouts that I have done since 2009 and I think I have in mind a pretty good schedule to gradually introduce and get me to where I need to be for STG. But first my weight needs to come back down to 148, as of right now I am at 166. Which is good because I was at 174 a month ago, also I need to be on top of my mileage and build back to high 70 to low 80 mile weeks. Which is coming it will take about 6 more weeks to get there. So here is to happy training, begins Monday!
