This weekend we got a lot finished. First of all we planted a few shrubs in the back yard in memory of my Father-in-law, Alan Skaar.
Saturday morning I went for a six mile run followed by a 22 mile bike ride. The run started off pretty good considering we had just run a marathon the weekend before. Trina, Mark, Kerry, Trevor and myself took off from Shoreline and headed towards Barber Park.
Our plan was to run 6 to 8 miles and at mile three it was unanimous, well except for Mark but he was feeling sorry for us so he turned around too. About 2.5 miles in we all started to feel the pain in the legs. We walked it off and mile three and started heading back. At mile 4 I got my second wind and picked up the page again. Oddly enough so did everyone else. As we were finishing off our last mile I picked up the pace again and low and behold there was Trevor kicking it into another gear. I decided to keep up with him and everyone else must have too. I finished a 7:22 mile the last mile and there was everyone else right with me. It was a great way to get the marathon cob webs out.
After the run I went over to Clocktower where Jason, Ryan, Shane and Brent were doing a 1.2 mile run. I had planned on a 30 mile ride after my run and there swim. Had I known the course they were going to ride I may have caught the next bus. They took me over the Zietgeist route and we ended at 22 miles, that of course was enough after the climbs they took me over.
