I didn't realize Dallas was so windy

Every time I get on my bike, its windy. Tonight was no exception, and it was probably the worst its been since I've been here (at least while on a bike anyway). Regardless, I set out to ride some loops at WRL. I hit the hills on the south end of the lake, hammered on the west side, and then went dialed it back a notch for the remainder of the loop. On my second loop the hills seemed exceptionally hard, and I couldn't figure out why. A few miles later I realized I had ridden all the hills in the big ring. I ended up logging 2:25 before I ran out of daylight, and returned with the intention of knocking out an easy run. However, I lost motivation.

Around 10:30 I got motivated and headed out for an easy 35 minute run to even it out at a full 3 hours of training for the day. I'm going to enjoy my friday off!
