Total Distance

22.00

10.2 mile run around the DC loop at 7 a.m. Felt way humid today. I was just soaked by 6 miles and still had 4 to go. Felt pretty good on the run all things considered. Ankle is gonna hurt so I just have to expect it. No watch but kept it honest.

40.1 mile bike ride. Got home from the run and helped Mik'L get Myler ready and out the door for his first day of school (preschool). Then I got on the bike and headed out at 9 a.m. It was 81 when I left the house and 90 F when I got home 2:05:00 later. This one made me work. I was completely dehydrated by mile 30. Didn't take any gu or fuel all morning. I'll learn the tricks with time. Got home and the scale said I was 147.5- pretty low considering all last week I was over 155lbs.

All thugs considered it seems like your training is going well. With everything on your plate (ankle, feeling sick) I would say you are tearing it up. Nice job pushin through this rough spot.

What kind of bike did you get? I just sold my mountain bike and am starting to look at getting a rode bike.
