Oh Yeah !

Since the weather has been so shitty as of late any stretch of sunny and warm is something to celebrate.

Weather man says 80 F today and getting warmer as the week progresses . Finally !

Last weekend at Lake Placid it was June gloom and rain. There were times on the bike I felt like I was at Paris-Roubaix.....well not really, but I can imagine how much a race like that blows(in a good way).

So after some early morning errands and To Do's I'm off for a 4 hr ride in the hills.

Still exstatic about the hills around here being tougher than the ones on the IMLP course. I had always heard about the Cherries and the Bears. Yes, they're tough ,but the climbing to J Peak and Stephentown are waay tougher. Real quad busters. Actually I think the Timberman course is as tough or slightly tougher than LP.

6 weeks to TAPER ! Bring it on baaaby ! I feel really good about my fitness. I just need to focus mentally on pace. Finish Strong , dial in nutrition during the bike , and above all keep humble. ENJOY THE DAY !

I really ought to do the Vermont Sun Tri on Fathers Day. I can gauge how far I've come from last years race. Maybe I'll pull the trigger tomorrow.
