71.5 miles!!!!

Finally!!! A nice, descent ride. It was cold (30's), it certainly was windy (think Middlleburg) and it there were some hills. I took my time and made it through this windy ride feeling really strong. If there was ever time I wanted to jump for joy after a ride, this was the time. It's hard to believe that just 6 weeks ago I had my hellish ride going only 30 miles. Incredible.

The ride today was in Harwood, MD (South of DC off of Route 2). We rode a lot of back roads and ended up riding along the bay through North Beach. From there, we were all over. There were some tough times when the winds were blowing so hard. But what's amazing is that the times when the winds were blowing the hardest, the last 20 miles, I had my fastest split!

p.s. And for those of you who are wondering how the tush is, it's not too sore.

Totals for the week:

Swim: 1.4, Bike: 95M, Run: 24.1M = 121 Miles, Time: 11:27 hours - GREAT WEEK!
