Morning all!
Starting the thread today if that's ok :-)!

Just got back from a peaceful 5.5 mile run. With the holiday, traffic was minimal and so nice and quiet out. Nice reflection time and the weather is still SO NICE in the mornings and evenings here!

Going to get on the trainer for an hour of intervals once the kids are set with breakfast.

Remember all those that fought for our freedom and made the ultimate sacrifice!

Great day outside today. I had to go into work for a while this morning.

I swam 100 yards and then ran four miles and did another two miles with intervals.

We will have a cookout tonight with the family.

Enjoy the holiday!

Really beautiful morning out. Next to nobody out driving this morning.

Was set to do my longest ride ever today, which became an hour longer when part of my looped route turned to gravel and it became an out and back...

All told, 86 mile bike today, legs are toast.

Had a great day! Started out with a 2 minute plank while coffee was brewing. Then our daughter and I made waffles for breakfast and headed out to the parade. After that I cut the grass and then headed out on a 12.5 mile bike ride.

Shortly after the ride we went out and played 12 "holes" of disc golf. We skipped the 6 holes going through the poison ivy and mosquito infested woods. It was a nice walk with the not so little girl.

Swimming and Shopping

Windy and Hot start to the day in the Mojave desert prevented a run or bike ride, so.....Off to the pool I GO!

Swim is my weakest link right now so I was happy to go, it was quiet and had my own lane all to myself. I practiced my high elbow catch, focused on my pull and overall form. Used the kick board and pull buoy focusing on front and rear forms. Also new for today's practice was Flip Turns and Dolphin Kicks. Still getting winded just trying to do 150-200 yard continuously, pushed through with several 100yd repeats and spent a good solid hour in the water drilling and lapping.

Then went shopping and purchased Joe Friel's 'The Triathletes Bible', some new swim jammers. and a resistance pull tube for arm exercises.

Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!

Special Thanks to our veterans and current serving military service men and women, Happy Memorial Day.
