Whooowee is it Thursday already?  Recovery, recovery, recovery.....please heaven give me some recovery.   One week from today I'll be dropping my gear and checking in for the Big Horn 100!! What the hell was I thinking!! Got out for an hour on the bike Tuesday, slow and easy, just let the legs spin.  Have to admit when I saw two huge pelotons of riders from the clubs I used to ride with go by, I kinda missed it for a second. 

Got out tonight for an easy 4 or so.  Again slow and easy, just let the legs spin.  Downhill gear is in the worst shape.  Probably from ripping down the trail from Hope in the searing pain of lactic acid, dehydration and low salt/electrolytes.  Not a place I want to go again soon....oh wait, I have a hundred miler next week! I don't know how Davey (Crocket) and the like do it, amazing.  Took my boys out for mile or so after dinner, just hiking.  Hands still numb from fishing rocks outa the creek for my 3 year old to through back in, so that may explain the more than usual 10-15 typo's per post. 

Hour bike Tuesday

4 miles today - easy- not sore, just tired and a bit stiff.

Easy 4 miles before heading up to the scout camp out with my kido. Good times.

Got home from the scout campout, got called to bag sand, took my 11 year old with me and we had a good time helping out.  Really good experience for him,  Ran up below Snowbasin again tonight.  Break'en the law again, but did no harm so felt ok with the infraction.  Those baracades keep the rif raff out though, just me and the deer.  Trails pretty much dry, but very very erroded.  Gorgeous out there.  Felt pretty crumby really.  Pace was easy, effort was not.  Attribute it to inhaling enough campfire smoke to qualify me as a pack a day smoker, too many pancakes, and the dreaded grass pollen kicking up the allergies/asthma. 

9 miles or so, no watch.
