46.2 mile ride. Out to airport back around Bloomington and the fields with one more mini loop around Summit and Stone Cliff. Just took it pretty EZ. Didn't have much in the legs to push if I'd wanted to. Butt is sore AGAIN and hurt pretty bad for the first 10 miles but by the end it wasn't bothering me. Took a shot at the KOM on the Rustic Dragstrip (twice) and edged out the neighborhood sharks for now to take the crown. 7.6 mile run on the treadmill after. Mik'L had a meeting early so I had to stay in and go shorter. I'll try to get out for a double today to get caught up on mileage and to take the pressure off tomorrow so I can hit the goals for the week. Hip didn't bother too much but that's the only blessing of the treadmill- it seems to be a little more gentle on things than out on the street. Sad though as it was 62 F this morning and I really was loving it on the bike. 5 more miles on the treadmill this afternoon. It felt like death to get on the sucker and get it done but one song rolled to another and finally it was over.
