living the madison life

this weekend was great including a friday night cook out with some of robin's co-workers, a visit from my mom (and later, dad, brooks and denise after they moved my sis into college). farmers market (and a yummy breakfast at bradbury's, dream park in fitchburg, dinner at the house with everyone, breakfast at the original pancake house and raspberry picking a sutter's ridge. cal even slept in both days!

i got out for just under two hours on the kona in the afternoon yesterday. i'm still getting used to riding a rigid front end but i will say last night was fun. i rode at quarry ridge and it wasn't as harsh as i remember - maybe i'm getting used to it? there was a couple walking their dog on the trails (i almost hit them three times), a dad and his kids out learning how to mountain bike (which was super cool - the kids had giant grins every time i passed them) and some really old dude with a cocktail and a cigarette walking down the trail. i got out of there once i saw that guy.

training for the week:
m: 60 minutes (bike commute)
t: 45 minutes (running)
w: 90 minutes (road bike)
r: 60 minutes (bike commute)
f: 60 minutes (bike commute)
s: off
n: 105 minutes (mtb on road/railtrail/singletrack)
total: 7 hours

ok total for the week but i could use another high volume week. i couldn't ride in this morning (i have a dentist appointment in a few hours). cross practices start on wednesday and i'd like to commute there at least for the september versions. we'll see i guess.

happy monday.
