I woke up at 4am so I would have time to stop at the gym on my run to seminary this morning and do a MAF test.  I improved a lot on my MAF since my last one:

TM miles:  1- 7:35, 2- 7:52, 3- 7:59 all keeping the HR under 141

Total run- 10 miles

Avg HR 136

Then I headed out for a bike ride, but got a flat 2 miles in.  No biggie...so I thought.  I quickly changed the tire and then went to fill it and realized that my valve that conects to the CO2 cartridge was missing.  I had to call Doone and get her to come rescue me. End of bike ride.

Asics Tarther Miles: 10.00

Sure great to have a good wife to bail you out of those kind of situations!

Doone is one extra special, kind and supportive wife! :) Please say hello to her for me!
