Off.

The boys and I slept until 8:30. We missed the finish of Megan's race, but it was cold. She was a touch faster than last year and was pleased with her time. We had a small party for her Mom in the afternoon and then headed back to Lake Orion.

Good ride. Very fast in A group and a few of us got dropped early and worked together. I started to drop a bottle at one point, but caught it by pinch it between my calf and the seat tube. Don't have data for the full loop as I turned around before the actual end of the loop but for 80' we were 20.1 MPH 242 watts @167 BPM

Took a slightly different route home than I have been. It was getting chilly. Had a good ride. I think this makes five in a row, perhaps my most consistent attendance since pre-COVID, but I will have to check.

50s and light rain, pretty much as yesterday. Four run days in a row. I haven't done that in a while I am pretty sure. Back on track with my running. Semester was over on Wednesday, so I just have a little work for Oakland and submit grades tomorrow. Lawrence Tech will be done next week some time. Feeling good.

Ended up submitting grades, which was definitely a PR.
