I didn't really care since I was recovering/resting.
But now, I need to hit the "GO" button once again and I do care about the weather. Fortunately, this is what it looks like :)
Oh and it gets better! We have Friday off from work.Oh, and OH! it gets even MORE better! Harriman State Park opens up (I think?) tomorrow.
So the plan is to ride a hilltarded 41.73 mile ride in Harriman on Friday, then hit the 57 mile time trial route on Saturday, followed by a 3.4 mile run.
Harriman Hills :)This weekend is two weeks out from New Orleans, which is enough time to destroy the legs one more time and let them heal. Instead of a run focused weekend, this will be mostly on the bike, obviously.
And I won my first Blog Giveaway! Aneta @ Confessions of a Rambunctious Runner gave away a copy of the Bart Yasso book, "My Life on the Run." Bart Yasso is famous for the Yasoo 800's, which can help determine your marathon time on the track. Once I finish the book, I will be passing it along via another giveaway. So stay tuned!
I know its only Wednesday, but any big plans for the weekend? Races?
