Saturday Ride at HAAF

I hadn't taken my bike out since Dane and I rode in the rain almost 3 weeks ago. Part of the reason is I needed to take it easy for a while to recover from my crazy week where I rode 84 miles and ran two 5k's back-to-back.

I forgot to hit the start button on my watch this morning until I was about 2.26 miles into my ride, so my actual ride was bout 17.35 miles and took almost exactly 1 hour. It felt good to get back on the bike and ride fast a little bit. I got up to 30 mph coming down the one "big" hill on base. Lot's of fun!

I tried not to over do it today since I'll be running 10 miles tomorrow. I'm not so scared of the distance this week as I was last week. Last weeks 9 miler was a real confidence builder for me. '

Well, I better go take the little girl outside and let her swing while we've still got some good weather.

See ya!
