Year Of Awesome

Thanks for checking in.

After a trip to Texas and a week of catch up at work, workouts are back in full swing. It’s been more than two weeks of bloglessness but there were a few runs decent runs that I never logged and there’s no reason to try and go back now.

Monday was our long run and it was great.  8 Miles in 65 minutes. Personal best. Later in the day I did another 8 miles on the bike up Awbrey Butte. Nice to be back in the saddle though I have not been taking care of my Felt and the gears are quite dirty. Add that ride to the 4 mile commute for the day and it’s 20 miles for the day. I’ll call that a good Monday and try to repeat that weekly.

Wednesday (yesterday) had another solid run. 5.6 miles along the river trail north. Had a time of 49 minutes which works out to 8.75 minute miles! Another personal best and getting close to that goal of 8. 

And today I registered for the Duel In The Desert Duathlon happening at the end of May. It will be my first duathlon and first bike competition. Really looking forward to that.

Side note: Shaved the legs during the break to prep for bike training. It’s a strange, new experience. But I like it. Not sure my wife is into though – think it kinda freaks her out.
