Saturday Workouts!!!
I had a nice workout this morning. My buddy gave me a bike last week so I rode it to my favorite running spot this morning. It was 1.6 miles to get there and I was surprised how much my legs hurt when I got there. As soon as I stashed the bike a woman pulled into the parking area with a flat tire and I had her out of there in about 4 minutes.
The actual workout was 2 times a mile at 8:36 and 8:34. I tried one more and was on pace through a 1/4 but I just couldn't hold it. I jogged/walked back to the bike and rode at what I would consider a nice clip home. It is going to be a sore day just because I am not used to it. Not sure if I am sold on the bike yet but I will give it at least a dozen or so rides to give it a chance.
What did you do today???

Symbolic bike ride this morning!
43 miles and change for my 43rd birthday, for no other reason than I can do it not where 2 years ago even the thought of walking up stairs was exhausting.

Did a 5k this morning, 23 minutes and some change, I seem to be stuck in 23 minutes for stand-alone 5ks, in a sprint tri I can get under that for the run split, but not stand-alone, I am starting to get frusterated. After the race I did a 21 mile bike ride
