Long Ride, Transition Run

Had planned on doing a century ride today (100 miles), but changed my plans this morning and rode for 74 miles on the tri-bike. I haven't done a ride longer than 60 miles in over nine weeks, so didn't want to overdo it. Was a good ride, lots of folks out there along the roads. I used today's ride to test the clothing I'll wear for my race. Well, it's the same tri-top and pair of shorts I used last year, but always good to do a sanity check on that kind of stuff.

I followed the ride with a 4 mile run along the river. Yup, getting the legs used to running after a long bike ride. Usually takes my legs a couple miles to switch over to the rhythm of running vs. cycling, so I guess I should run a bit longer to get to that sweet spot of feeling good on the run after a ride.

So, this weeks totals: Swim 4500 yards, Bike 169 miles, Run 21 miles

7 weeks to go!
