19 mile hilly bike ride this morning

Tonight I made it out the door about 8:30 for my run and it was still 85 degrees. 

1 mile warm up

4 x 1 mile with 1/2 mile recovery jogs (6:15, 6:20, 6:52, 6:35)

1/2 mile cool down

I was all over the place on my mile repeats and they hurt way more than they should, but I guess since I haven't done any fast running for about 6 weeks, it's a good start.

I ran 3 1/2 miles to a trail run that I used to run with Jeff before he moved. Then did the 10 mile loope which is a pretty difficult trail run, then the 3 1/2 miles home running into a 20 mph wind, for a total of 17 miles.  It wasn't fast (AP 8:32), but I got it done. Parts of the trail are steep enough that I walked, but most of it is runable as long as you watch your footing.  It was fun though.  I need to get Blake out there and show him that run.

Blake and I went out for a ride this morning. The weather was amazing, high 50s and no wind.  It was fun to get back out on our bikes together again.  Blake had a flat during the ride, but we got that fixed and continued on.  I ended up doing 27 miles on the ride.

After the ride I headed out on the trails and got in 5 miles of trail running, nice and easy. It was a glorious morning and I felt like I could just stay out there exploring all the different trails for hours, but I had a stronger desire to get home so I could watch general conference, so I hurried home just in time for that and I'm glad it did. It is inspiring to hear the words and council of modern day propthets.

 

Afternoon: Lower body workout
