First brick of the season

Katie and I put down our first real brick of the season today.  We knocked out an hour and a half on the bike, with the second half riding into a stiff wind.  I'm definitely starting to feel the strength return to my legs, but I've still got a long way to go before March 30.  I consider myself extremely lucky to be able to get in outdoor rides in January.  This is the time of year in NYC when I had the bike put up for the winter.  Now, if we could just get to the time change, I could ride outside after work too and stop going to so many spin classes.

After the ride, we made the short drive over to Georgetown Lake and did a 30 minute run on the Goodwater loop.  It was actually very warm on the run, and Katie and I both struggled quite a bit on the short run.  By the next brick, I'll hopefully feel much stronger on the run portion.
