Today so far has been kind of perfect. The weather. The bike ride. The funny conversations. Its easier to go fast on the group rides because I know that someone is more likely to notice if I go flying off of the cliff on which we ride. Of course when my nutrition (cliff blocks, gel) went flying out of my half open bento box on the way down a hill it was less than perfect. Until I realized that my cell phone was still in my bento box - that was perfect. I finished my ride on the trainer at home to give myself a shot at making a run at perfect (I don't consider the fact that Thursday's run off was 18 minutes instead of 20 to put perfect in jeopardy - its my perfect and I can round up and I had already run around the block once - twice would have been weird at 10:45 pm).
I have re-concluded that I'm allergic to the pool. I might have to find a new pool because I'd be an awful du-athlete. I'm a bad biker and runner but an average swimmer. But I have fun. And I tell the boys on the group ride how to shave their legs. Which was really a conversation I never thought I'd have.
There was a Team in Training marathon group doing a long run on the cliff on which we ride. And for the first time in a long time, I thought it might be fun to do another.
The end.
