Subject: RE: 6.19.16 Happy Father's Day! Not rolling my eyes. Isn't it well into the triple digits in your neck of the woods? There have been many days in Vietnam that I would have jumped in the river if it wouldn't have resulted in typhoid or worse! When I lived in Hawaii in grad school, I would sometimes stop on long runs a few times to go jump in the ocean!
No heat here in Oregon--supposedly was going to be warmer today but kind of marginal--high 60's, intermittent sunshine, strong gusty winds. The winds, lots of Father's Day families, and plenty of tree blowdown made for an interesting 3-hour-ish ride on our favorite rural MUP. Realized as soon as I started that I haven't ridden my tri bike outside since my HIM in early May. Got lots of handling skills work in today! Plus my saddle kept tilting the wrong direction--I adjusted it and apparently didn't tighten it enough. Ugh. About 3:05 of riding and trying not to hit branches or people, plus 30 minutes brick run after. |
