Evening: 78' ride outside. 18.6 miles @ 14.2 MPH. 134. HR 102.

Recovery. First outdoor ride of the year. A bit later than normal, but things weren't great for a while and then just really turned around quickly. Roads were graded and actually very dry and chunky in places. A few wet and/or muddy spots, but nothing you don't see after a little rain in the summer. I was hoping the warmer weather would be dry so I could get a longer ride outside this weekend, but not going to happen.

I skipped my Friday long run as Megan had to go to Toledo and I took the boys for the day. The boys were extremely challenging and my parenting was about a D+ at best.
