DC loop with Dave this morning. A little cooler than it's been (40F) but once we got going I had to pull up the sleeves. Felt achy and tight but again runnable and glad I didn't have to let Dave go.... although I'm sure I slowed him down. 

60 min's on the spinner after the run. Just couldn't get going... at all. Stayed around 95 watts or so and usually I'm around 120+ just regular effort. Really felt like I was working hard and the output was super weak. Plus my butt hurt the whole session. But glad to get in a decent workout timewise and watch a couple days worth of PTI's too. 

Oh and I did something off the wall- registered for LOTOJA. IDK?

You are getting sucked into the world of cycling. Sounds like fun. Is LOTOJA a lottery?

Not really sucked into it... more pushed because of my running injury. Had I never got injured or even recovered in a reasonable time I would have never thought about anymore pure cycling events. But my injury seems to get worse the and my running may be a thing of the past.... I have to grab onto something. I just wish my hip would "release" and I could run for real again.

Yes it's a lottery. No it doesn't sound like fun:) Around 10 hours in the saddle sounds horrible. A 17 mile uphill climb? *&%$#*!
