7:04 avg DC loop in reverse. Legs felt ok but on the heavy side. Body is totally sore- to the bone.  We took the boat out on Saturday and I busted out the wake board. The lake temp said 69 F and I also had a new wet suit to try out. I loved both (boarding and the wet suit) and had a blast. But I forgot how jacked the whole body feels the first couple times out each summer- skiing or boarding. You just use muscles that normally don't get use. Nonetheless I'm hurting- abs, bi's, tri's, lats, neck, back, butt... oy!

So the run was so so. The bright side of the run was the Pegasus finally felt good after about 3-4 crappy runs breaking them in. 

4.9 miles tonight out around Silkwood and Little Valley. Just EZ in the hot afternoon sun and breeze. 96 F.

Its the same thing after you go snow skiing for the first time each year. You get so sore in places from the jarring and lateral motion. The stabilizer muscles get the smackdown!

I'm jealous that you are already out on the lake! I am hoping to get a little boat action this weekend in TN :)
