Total Distance

6.60

30.5 mile bike ride. So I've never done a "bike race" before so I'm not sure about how to go about my week with tapering and such. Today I just decided to wake up whenever without an alarm and ride whatever I had time for. Woke at 5:08 and the baby was crying. So fed him then got out as soon as I could. Looped through the fields down the river trail around Sunriver and back through the Southern Parkway. Decided to take it super EZ as I trashed the legs and system out yesterday. But once on the river tail at the very top I decided to hit that section hard all the way to Man-o-war bridge to see if I could own the KOM's on that section on Strava. So I did and now own all 5 for now. But other than that I road EZ and let the legs recover.

6.6 mile run after. Super smooth and ez run with some good running vibes flowing... until my hip really started sending some sharp pains with about 2 miles to to. Ugh. Just a quick reality check to let me know where I stand.

You been watching Le Tour? The average speed was unreal on Sunday's stage. Of course they are all riding clean now ;) so that makes it even more unreal. Good luck in your race!

No. I wanted to but realized we don't get that channel. Clean? I'm not sure that sport will ever be clean. But still they are smoking fast.
