Another solid day of training today. It began with a 16 mile bike ride on the highway. The wind direction was very confusing this morning. On my way out, I felt that I was against the wind, and was looking forward to the wind at my back for my return trip. However, upon turning around, the wind was at my face again! (or at least I thought so!) Despite the wind, and my computer not working so that I could not see my average mph, it felt like a good ride. After completing my ride, I handed my bike off to my husband so that he could follow me on my run. The brick workout was excellent practice, and I really appreciated my husband's positive comments to get me through what seemed like a slow 3.7 miles. I am hopeful that the race will not feel as hot with an earlier start (90 degree temps are not so much fun.) |
