RIDE 3:10 and 53.5 miles
RUN 35 mins and 4 miles
When I heard JP had a ride going Saturday, I was more than ready to ditch my plans of intervals on the MCT. I had some uncertainty about the wisdom of literally pulling the bike out of winter storage for a long ride with no shake-down, but I went anyway.
JP, DC, IT, and a few other newer riders joined us for a solid group. JP was doing the 50x4 twice (she's amazing!) in prep for IMB, the rest of us just once.
Oh it felt wonderful to be outdoors, in aero, settled into that bike :) WONDERFUL!!!! I even loved the outbound headwind because I knew it'd be a fast ride home :)
The brick run was also my first real one of the year, ooh was it hard, but really not that hard! Part of me wants to stop and/or slow down, but the other part of me says "why? just GO".
Felt great to be able to hop on a bike and nail a 50-miler and a brick. Sets the season up, identifies, weaknesses, and lets me set goals.
