Brick!

Knocked out 50.45 miles on the bike today.  For once the winds were calm and I was able to really hammer today.  I did quite a few extended sections at 23+ mph. One thing I really hate is random people jumping on and sucking my wheel when i pass them. So, one of my favorite things to do when this happens is to hammer and drop them like a sack of rocks. Did it twice tonight. The second guy hung on at 27 mph for a little over a mile before he dropped off. One of the reasons I love it is b/c it pushes me harder. I'll sustain the speed for several miles after I drop them if I've got the road to keep hammering.  I felt good today, but I guess I'll see what I lost with the week+ off the bike when I do my long ride this weekend.


After I got off the bike, I did a quick run to try and solidify the transition between disciplines.  I only did 2 miles, so I decided to push the pace a little.  I did the first mile at 7:34 and then came back in 6:25.
