Its been a while, eh? Just getting to enjoy some nice weather here. Finally some warm summer days, after a lot of rain this spring. Today was a fun 100mile ride in the hills with Collier & Aaron. Went up Golden Gate Canyon--my first time up that one--what a beautiful place! Here's a photo of use catching a break at the base of Lookout Mountain. That blue sky doesn't get much more perfect! Up next is a flatter but longer ride next Thursday.
On the racing front, I've had two of the Mile High Duathlons and also the State Time Trial Championship. The two du's were ok. Didn't run especially fast in either, but rode pretty well. Working on the run speed for sure. The State TT was a bit of a disappointment, as I was sick for two days prior. Almost skipped it, but feeling good enough the night before to give it a go. My time was a few seconds slower than 2 years ago (seemed like a more windy day)... good enough for 10th place. Not bad for a tri(du)athlete against the pure roadies, but I know I could have gone faster.
Up next I have a 5 miler on July 4th in Aspen. Then the Triple ByPass {~120miles with big climbs} for fun on July 11th. So far June training is preparing me well for the bigger miles to come in July... to set me up for success in the fall!
