Good ride. Kept it easy mostly to recover from running yesterday. A mix of tar and gravel, with a brief bit of single track. I flew off track into the woods. It happens.

Stridlek Workout: 3 (6 x 40”) w/ Equal Jog Back and 5’ Jog Between Sets
4 up/4.1 down
A little faster than last week I think. Much drier air. Pollen had me hacking a bit but not too bad. Drank too much last night, so I moved the workout to late afternoon.

Beautiful weather for running. Warm and dry and not too hot. Crappy weather for tomorrow, so likely the ride won't happen, but I'll just double up in the afternoon.

Did the same warmup pattern as last week. Legs were much better than last week. 4.5 mile warm up, including .26 @ 5:43 pace. Did drills and strides after. On the cool down I attacked a Strava segment again and got 3rd. That was 5:40ish for .33 but it's an average grade of 4%. The segment was slower as I think it starts back farther than I realized. Segments really don't matter but in the absence of racing it's not a bad carrot to reach for every once in a while.
PM: 4.3 miles, averaged 10:25. HR 121.
Cool and rainy. Almost cold, but it was in the lower 60s. Unseasonably low though. No group ride with the rain. Might not get a ride in this week, but I'll just log running miles.
Night: AIS, PT, and light core.

Got a new HR monitor at KLM.

Did about 6 miles to River Bends and ran up and down the bridge hill for some elevation gain. Felt good overall but tired the eleventh time up the hill. A bit under 3.5 miles total at an average grade of 4%. One of the only ways I can get hills without driving.
Drove to Ann Arbor to see friends and stay over. We had a good time.
