40 mile bike ride, longest up to this point!!  My back gears came unscrewed during the ride, I had to tighten them when I was done.  My Shoe clip decided it didn't want to let me clip in as well.  Luckily I carry tools with me.  It made for about a 2:30 hour ride.

8 mile run today.  I participated in our departments semi annual physical fitness test this afternoon.  I've always won sense I started with the division 4 years ago.  I usually lap most and some twice on a mile and a half run.  There was some fresh blood there today.  A young man straight out of the academy.  Apperantely he was number one in his class. 

I proved victorious and beat him by 36 seconds.  I really look forward to these runs.  I guess beating a bunch of non runners really does something for me.  Like I've said before.  "I'll take a win where ever I can get it.

20 mile bike ride.  I'm in Page all week doing a boating class for the new hires.  I had to do my workout on a stationary bike. 

We're having some long days.

25 mile bike ride.  Very windy and hot.  Nothing special to report.  Oh, I found a fishing jacket full of tackle lying on the side of the road on my way back.  It was a nice jacket with some good gear in it.  I put it on and biked the last 5 miles home.  I'm sure I looked pretty sexy in my bike shorts and fishing jacket. 

There were 3 new fishing licenses in the jacket, so I'll be able to return it to it's owner.
