Turn your rut into a groove.

pm--6 Variation of usual morning route w/ a slip into a construction trench in the dark. No damage, thankfully. Other than some tenderness in my left achilles, I felt pretty good. 

pm--7.5 Sidewinder and back from the blacktop. Nearly 800 ft. of climbing before flipping. I have about 800 m (~2,400 ft.) of vert in 10 days. It boggles my mind that someone on Strava has 27,000+ m in the same time. What do his quads look like? What does he do for a living? Fun to wonder.

pm--4.5 Tready w/ some Bundesliga on the tube. 
 

I finished Pride and Prejudice for the umpteenth time. 

pm--6 Anasazi w/ Chipmunk. I've never taken that side trail before. It was just an old road, so maybe not as exciting as the route to the homestead, but was okay. My watch acted up for the first mile as far as the elevation gain goes. That's frustrating. I liked my previous Suunto for that exact reason, but this watch hasn't been quite the same standard. That being said, I got some decent climbing today. 

pm--6.5 Anasazi to the homestead and back w/ Tom. Took it easy today and chatted about electronic music.
