Long Ride

It's freaking hot!! I had to get out for 3 hours today so I headed up through my usual route but detoured and rode the bike course I'll be racing on tomorrow. Got out at about 9:15 and it was already blazing. Legs were fresher after getting a break yesterday. Took on some climbs in the beginning and then got the bike leg of the race rode the toughest section first all uphill for 4 miles, rollers, and then some steep climbs back to transition. Rode the first half next which is mostly down hill back to 179 heading into Simsbury. Good route and I might use it in for some upcoming rides. Nice change of scenery.

Tomorrow's going to be tough but I'm going to treat it as a hard training day. Hoping to put in a better swim, solid bike and decent run.

Summary:

Bike: 3:15

Avg HR: 140
