7th
Bike Ride + Run + T-Storm
I was originally going to do my bike ride this morning before it got too hot (today was finally in the 80s, yay!), but I ended up spending the morning mostly being annoyed about my car and dumb mechanics. So I did my ride tonight after seeing the new Narnia movie Prince Caspian (not as good as the first) and shoe shopping (DSW, new flipflops).
I biked just about 7 miles, around Abington and Weymouth. It definitely made it more interesting to go down some roads I’d never been down. The downside of this was that I came out on Rt 18 which is not my favorite road to be on, regardless of my form of transportation. As I was almost home, I heard some thunder so I sped up a little.
When I got back it still hadn’t done anything else and I was about 10 minutes short of my training calendar’s prescribed 50 minutes of riding. So I stuck the bike in the garage and went back out to squeeze in a really short run to practice transition.
I was planning on doing 1/2 mile to Blueberry Circle and back, but just as I was about to run around the actual circle I saw some lightening. I did an about face and really turned up the pace! I got back in about 2 minutes I’d say.
