30 miles - Time, to revisit riding! I haven't done this jaunt in two months at least, and our main street, Northlake Boulevard was repaved. I like to start early so as not to get much traffic and especially to not be mixed in with the Christ Fellowship church traffic in or out. I started … Continue reading Wind and wheels

46mi ride/1 mi run. I know I need to be pedalling more than running in prep for this summer's two distance triathlons. So I left the house at 6am, lights on and heading north. I knew a ride to Hobe Sound would have me doing more than 40 miles, then I'd jog around the neighborhood … Continue reading Skip the run
19.3mi The distance may be changing because the cat eye needs a battery! I chose the Mirasol route because it definitely has less traffic and wacky people. I averaged 20.3 for the route, had to stop at a traffic light at PGA and Central Blvd, but the concern is getting in an extra ride and … Continue reading Spinning safely
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
3mi. On a very still and cool morning, I went for my usual Wednesday 20 mile loop around Singer Island. Temps were in the low 60s but out of habit I wore a sleeveless jersey. I considered going back for a regular short sleever once I felt the breeze zinging me through the shoulder sleeve … Continue reading Close call at 5am
20 mi. When my average speed is only 20.1, I can blame the wind, say I'm tired from the weekend and stress on the system, but really, it does me good to tick off more miles riding than just what I can do on the weekend. I see a mag trainer coming in my future... … Continue reading At least I woke up
25mi bike/10 mi run I did the announcing and DJ stuff at the NPB Ghost 5k run, thinking that would take my run oppty away this Saturday. Nope! Austin came and ran the race, brought his bike and we rode 25 from Loggerhead Park to the inlet twice. The I ran with Chiara form her … Continue reading Unexpected good day of training
20 mi. Today's Singer Island circle was calm out west by my house, but once I headed eastward, the breeze was apparent. I felt the 10mph ESE wind immediately, my speedometer was hovering in the 19-20mph range. Up the Blue Heron Bridge into the wind, across Singer Island with the wind, I touched 22-23mph. Coming … Continue reading Thru the breezy mist
33miles. This was a good day to ride, really no breeze except for a small bit coming back. We had plenty of time to talk, ride, and see others out there. We went to the preserve park at the end of Jupiter Island, and also saw the alleged "Bill Gates" secret road with all of … Continue reading Tooling up the Island with Walter
20mi. I spun through my Singer Island early route this morning instead of running. It was windy form the NE, so the trip up Singer Island was against the wind. My average speed was 19.1 for the route, my hurt leg felt some of the effects of riding so I never pushed that hard. It … Continue reading Off the mark a bit
