4.10.16 Sunday Funday!

Another day of softly falling snow. 16 km as lsd

Send some of that snow here! Rather tough day at the (training) office. Had a four-hour bike ride on tap, had planned to split it between industrial park and trainer, but when I got to the park, discovered they had ripped up the road in several places, apparently working on the water or sewer line. No go with a tri bike, especially at high (well, relatively high) speed in aero. And nowhere else in town to ride said bike with anything approaching safety, not to mention having to stop every few minutes for traffic. All dressed up (for biking) and no place to go, quite literally.

So aborted mission and back home on the trainer for the remaining 3:10. Sigh. I did have plenty of chocolate, my last Double Espresso gu, and a great video--This group of very enthusiastic German cyclists (they have become my virtual workout buddies) have dozens of these on their website, but this may well be their masterpiece:

Plus a 35 minute brick run after in approximately oven temperatures. (I think 99 at end.) Certainly earned my Sunday brunch!
