AM/Lunch: 3 hours. 160W. HR 132. 

Out on the Polly Ann and then to Lake George North and back mostly on Baldwin. Gave one of the segments a rip and moved closer. Still about 3 seconds or so off from the crown.

PM: 3.3-mile walk w/ Megan and the boys. HR 96.

Capped off a rather indulgent week. 15 hours of cycling. 3.5 hours running. 4 hours of walking.

We went over to a colleague's briefly to get some hand-me-down toys for the boys. Their finished basement had me quite envious. 

My parents are coming in tomorrow for a few days. Should be interesting.

Some nice air blew through. Tried to do a progession, but I got out of the gate too fast. Been a few years since I have done that. 7:36 and 7:19 jogged about for a while and decided to hit a fast mile from just above Scripps to the 1-mile mark at Greenshield. Didn't have much left in the last 200m but I think I was getting lazy. Still it's been a hot minute since I ran a sub-6:30 mile. 6:21. Trying to relearn pacing and effort. Going to take a little while me thinks.

I might stick with midweek running workouts through the first part of the fall rather than rotating in midweek bike workouts and do my intervals and other faster bike stuff as part of my weekend long ride. Trying to get in what I want without overdoing it.

The boys got their first hair cuts and their second COVID vaccine. A big day in the Dodge Schoen household.

Interval 1: 315W @ 165 BPM, Interval 2: 320W @ 169 BPM, Interval 314 @ 172W

4' easy spin recoveries. Solid session.

Very humid as it has been. Thursday Night Dirt was cancelled as the roads are a mess after getting some much needed but substantial rain. 

Everything is going relatively well with my parents.

Strong effort. Keeping things shorter but more steady while my parents are here so I am not taking up too much time. Extremely humid and uncomfortable outside.

Took my parents home later in the day. It was a good visit. We took the boys to the subdivision park. It was extra gross out, so we didn't stay long.
