Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
13.00	0.00	13.00

Road bike 5.62 miles (9600 North 6800 West Church on corner) at 550am to meet Melanie for nice bike ride. Total 26.75 Miles in 2:10. Hey longer than a marathon!!First real bike ride since last Summer. We went up to Alpine and all around there and back to PG then back to Lone Peak and thru park to Alpine highway and we parted at 9600 north in Highland/AF, who knows. We went the same length by tenths of distance. Our timing was impeccable as I approached the corner she was just about to it. Awesome ride. We could talk and the traffic was minimal so we could ride a lot double file. We did an intense climb up in North Alpine, hello arms and shoulders. Got to eventually do some strength training on the arms/abs. Felt strong but core exercises would probably benefit me. One brief stop to raise my bike seat. Didn't get thirsty oddly enough but brought water on my bike so took some at mile 19 or so. We did the whole out of seat bike thing and really got a great workout for a crosstrainer. Decided to run 1.2 miles after watching my kids swim in the warm water while my sweat froze eating a banana and drinking OJ. Pace 8:03 around track x 4. Legs felt out of body even after an hour from the biking. PS Do I count at least half of these miles for a run? Anyone have info on the equivalent ratio for biking versus running effort?

Sounds like a perfect morning biking with friend. Don't know much about ratio or biking for that matter. Have a great day.

bike miles to running miles...? i didn't log miles when i was biking because i didn't know!!! :)

but you should certainly be able to count AT LEAST half...you were still getting a great workout in. sounds like it was a fun ride.
