We were a bit short on staff, so I paced the 9:00/mile group for our marathon training program. We did 16 miles up the west side, into Central Park, and back. Although the pace was easy for me, the heat and humidity took its toll. By the end of the run, I was fairly drained. I rehydrated, changed clothes, and then jumped on the bike.
Francis, Nate, YMC and I headed over the GW Bridge and took the back way up to Piermont. Luckily, Nate knew the way, b/c I would have gotten completely lost. The back way was a nice alternative to the usual ride up 9W. My legs were completely dead from the run earlier in the day, so climbing was next to impossible for me. I really struggled to do any climbing. YMC stuck with me and we took it easy on the way back as YMC and Nate picked up the pace and disappeared. I ended up riding a little over 60 miles, which was solid mileage, but it would have been nice to feel stronger.
I weighed myself when I returned home and found that I was down a little over 8 lbs from my morning weight. I need to hydrate a little better in the future.
