Holy Cats!
Man was I excited for my long ride today! I woke up to a beautiful, VERY sunny morning and couldn't wait to get going! It was kind of chilly - only in the mid 40s but I knew that by the time I did my swim and got back home for the ride it would at least be in the 50s and warming up fast.
And the weather did not disappoint! I had a great ride. It was absolutely beautiful, sunny and warm and just a slight breeze. I would like to say I didn't want it ever to end but truth be told, when my 3.5 hours were up I was ready to get off my bike. I haven't ridden that long for a while! And the insane amount of climbing I did (who came up with that crazy route anyway?) was definitely taking it's toll towards the end. And that weight lifting I did yesterday? Yeah, didn't even have to blink my eyeballs this morning to know that I was definitely SORE!
But my swim went great and my ride was superb and now, even though I'm still sore, I'm happy as a clam. O and I have even been pretty productive today (although cleaning the house has yet to be accomplished). Tomorrow is long run and a ride and I'm hoping my hamstrings feel at least somewhat normal by then!
Have a great night everyone!

Hi Beth. Sounds like you're doing some solid training. 3 1/2 hours on the bike is no joke! Keep up the good work.
