BIKE 20 miles in just under 1:20: 17:30, 16:56, 17:10
I slept in until 6 knowing I was riding alone and needed sleep, did it help, I dunno. But by delaying all the other park users were also out of bed with their doggies and shitheadedness, so to the lady who was walking 5+dog abreast socially distanced, towards me on the wrong side of the entire fucking road, fuck you. I'm not sorry you had to jump into the grass because you weren't paying attention. Between my red jersey and headlight, what more do you need to look ahead every now and then to know what's coming towards you? An airhorn? Jeezus woman, we coulda hit head on, I was on the brakes and slowing, I wasn't going to hit you, but the fuck does it take to get people to pay more attention?
That's kinda how the ride went. I really don't mind sharing the park, really, but when you want right out in front of me without even checking, well, you're gonna get a fly-by.
Another great morning, sun and no rain or wind. My chest is still feeling odd, and still my throat. Again, like a sore throat. Even sitting here typing I can feel it. It seems to coincide with the full body edema-swelling I had (forgot to mention that yesterday) but I don't know if there's a connection.
Faster today, I wasn't watching the lap times as I rode because my goal was short <30 second rest between intervals (we are usually 90 seconds) and I wanted a more continuous ride. So I'm happy to see a sub-17 interval! I wore my HRM again, the HR wasn't high so the feeling in my chest is not from an overworked heart. It's just a feeling I can't explain.
I started writing up yet another log book to track my heart rate, mileages, cadence, paces, speeds. But stopped after on page, I just don't need yet another thing to take care of.
I leave for home soon! To see my family and LA, and have his little white coat ceremony picnic. I gotta buy filet mignon!
