30mi. The idea was to go only 30 miles but to spin one gear lower than where I belonged. I left at the same time as the group but allowed the mass to get further ahead of me. I stayed behind with no pull, we were riding with the wind up the Island. I stayed … Continue reading Short recovery 30

40 mi. I know a later start exposes me to more heat, but I guess I needed a reminder! I attended a product testing event at Lululemon and ran 2-3 miles. That had me arrive later than the advertised 9am for the ride up and back with a smaller than usual group. I rode to … Continue reading 40@10
29 mi ride/4 mi run - Walter and I left Loggerhead park at 12:40pm It was a great afternoon to ride, mid 70s and sunny. I used generous amounts of sunscreen, brought one Clif Bar and one water bottle. The breeze was from the Northeast and wasn't a big deal in either direction, but it felt … Continue reading Mini brick workout
22.5 mi Starting at 4:30am, Charlotte and I did the Jupiter Island circuit run. I felt warm enough to go shirtless, but mist, fog and a breeze from the Northwest gave me something to think about once we turned around on the island. Coral Cove park restrooms are locked early am. I felt good for … Continue reading Runs of unexpected length ahead.

Coming back we rode with Dave Capparelli and 3 of his friends, that was a good pace until a 60+ yr old guy pulled the group at 24mph. … Continue reading Still fun to spin
40 mi. Today I thought we were going to Sandsprit park for 50 miles, but we agreed to go shorter and run 3 miles after the ride. I felt god, didn't try to overdo it on the pulls, and decided to ride back from Bridge Rd with Charlotte when she wasn't feeling up to the … Continue reading 40 as a compromise.
50 mi. The trip to Sandsprit Park was Scott, Chiara, Walter, Carolyn and I. Going to the lighthouse, we only went 17 mph. Once on the island, 20-22 to Bridge road. My seat felt as if it needed adjustment so I don't get uncomfortable or numb. Too late of rthis ride. I noticed the wind … Continue reading Speedier coming home
50mi. I rode with Chiara, Walter, Stanton, Charlotte, Carolyn. It was a warm morning and it proved to be a good workout. Chiara was ready to go, keeping a good pace to and from the start point. I used Carbo Pro in the water bottle, and half/half G2 & water. My legs felt good, my … Continue reading A good brick!
30mi. Having just returned from Colorado and Utah where little structured activity occurred, I went riding to Bridge Rd and back with Chiara and Walter.
