Elite  4583   |  Subject: 6.4.17 Sunday Funday!Hey kids! Happy Sunday! It's a beautiful day in the desert and that means it's time to head out to collar and elbow and do some more mountain bike riding! Packing a lunch, chair, and a book so afterwards I can just hang out in all that beauty for a while. It fills my soul! Wow, that sounds corny. Steve...that looked very dreary! Hopefully that's not how it always is...I would not do well in that kind of climate! Jamie--I bought some Saucony Nomads. I am a loyal Saucony fan for sure. Never gone wrong with any pair I have purchased. Have a great day all! |

Not that intense--first two hours was "warmup", but after Saturday's run, my legs were pretty tired! You know you're nuts when you look at next week's training schedule and think, wow, "only" a three-hour ride! Will have to start it early as Red Rover will be getting packed in his case to fly home with me a week from today. |

My wife and kids are all sick, so it's been superdad all day. Without the super powers. Not the Sunday I had planned, but I did get in my ride. 1:30 - 30 mile ride, out and back of 15 with the second half at a faster effort. It was hot and humid, but it was nice to get out. My son repaid me by having diarrhea at the grocery store (at least in the bathroom) and again a bit in the car on the way home. AWESOME. Have a great week, BT.

Master 8247 Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: 6.4.17 Sunday Funday! Must have been a poopy kind of day. When I finished up at the industrial park and stopped to change into running shoes and lower the seat for the ride home (on a busy parkway), I managed to dismount right into a big pile of dog doo-doo. Of course, this was in my brand-new bright red bike shoes (one week old) and cleats (first ride ever). Arrrgh! I guess the only saving grace is that for some reason I didn't do a "flying dismount" (sometimes I practice it there, but my toes were sore from a run the day before, so I didn't), or it would have been all over my socks and feet.

I wish I had one to contribute but I was spared today. 5 mile run along my favorite trail with a lightning storm that popped up and scared the shite out of me (there ya go), but had a brisk 8:30 min mile run back to the car without incident.
