Until I can run again, I'll be doing this weekly.

I will park behind Sysco at 6:30-6:45 PM... and then go ride up and down Windhaven. If you want a challenge... feel free to join me anytime!

AND... The beauty of this is that you can't get dropped or lost.

Hit me up on Training Log if you need me contact information, etc.

Intriguing idea...  Might have to do it next week.  Don't want to blow myself out this week before the Metroplex Super Sprint. 

Oh yeah, and I might want to try to ride the hill at least once before trying repeats on it.  It seems steep from the car!

I'll join you again next week after Kansas. That was a fun Thursday ride in a sick and twisted sort of way!

OH yeah, save your legs! Want to be fresh for the race.

Come out... ride up the hill. You can always go on the other side and do the easier hill if you need a short break from it.

It will make you a better rider in the end. I just like having company (like Aimee!) with me, because it makes me go faster. If I'm alone I'll sluff off.

X2 on the company providing motivation!

BTW, I am notoriously bad at hills (gravity likes me!), but someone said I could get better this way!

All right, so we have the super fast group and the slow group.

BTW- if it's ever raining, I won't be out there.

Well I didn't bring my bike to work, since it was pouring down rain this morning. So I don't have time to go home, get the bike and all my gear and get over there before 7:00 PM. At that point it's pointless.

So I'll be on the trainer tonight.

I hate rain.

How ever many you want.

Last time we went for an hour. I think we went up the East/West side hills 4 times. It's really very casual. If you show and do it twice.. then that's fine. Or if you go for more, that's fine too.

All right, it's TOMORROW kiddos! Hills WILL MAKE YOU STRONGER!

Come on out and join in!

I just hope I don't completely fall apart in the heat and wind, like I did on my ride last night.

I thought it was just me...  Coming south on Teel in Frisco was a beating - all three times...  I wasn't able to get much speed work in against the wind that is for sure....

Just saw your log... at least you had a decent average on the bike.

Last week I rode on Tues and did 30 miles w/a 18.2 mph average.

This week I did 21 miles w/a 16.2 mph average... can we say I COMPLETELY SUCKED! Need to acclimated to this heat again!

That's only because I am wide (read overweight)  like a sail - the tailwind really pushes me along!

If you're working out so hard you've forgotten what day of the week it is due to fatigue and exhaustion, you need a break man!!!! Ha.
