63.7 mile ride up around Quail, Leeds LA Verkin, Hurricane then the back way to Sand Hollow and finally back home. First 15 miles or so were in darkness and I really had to ride the brakes to avoid crashing. Then up around Leeds, LA and Sand Hollow the wind killed me. 3:32:00 or around 18 mph. 

Came home changed, hit the potty and fed the chickens. Then out running. 

13.1 miles around DC and LV in 1:28:48 or a 6:47 avg. A really solid run after the ride. I did a good job hydrating and eating on the bike so I was able to run with no issues. Awesome morning with a low of 57 F. I was actually cold out in the fields early on the bike... cold!

Fantastic day, Clyde! A good base builder for you. Looks like you are definitely on the rebound.

Nice Clyde. That's a solid run after a long tough ride!

Thanks guys. I'm just trying to learn how to do this "tri" thing. Still a long ways off but it's nice to mix it up with something new after just marathon training for the last 8 years.
