single gear riding

Saturday's workout was a 30 mile ride, followed by what I thought was a very long swim. The ride started off well, with a group of about 12-15 people. At about mile 12 I decided to hang back and ride with Michele, as she was not having a good ride. She was ready to turn back and head in, but I urged to keep riding. I am proud of her for riding out the rull route, she did great though she was feeling well. Good job Baybuh :) During the ride I worked on riding in the same gear(no shifting) up the whole ride. trying to simulate having a single gear bike. I could feel it in my legs after the workout, but it built strength for the climbing and leg speed on the down hill.

Sunday, we had a captains run at rancho. The attendance was high, and everybody enjoyed the run. Donna crashed the run, so her, myself, Berend, Sabine and Nicolas did the upper wildcat loop - total 7 miles. I felt great through the whole run, but was super tired when we were all done. Breakfast at the Original Pancake House is always a great after a weekend of working out.

Tonight... babysitting and hopefully a swim
