From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to Madison St. on my old commuting bicycle with Max on his bicycle, then back to Northfield Rd. towing Max's bicycle, then to the Bethesda Metro Station. Missing breakfast at home then eating a larger than normal one at work, and having moderate but Chinese food dinner at home stacked on the weight in a day.

From the Bethesda Metro Station to Northfield Rd. I had missed Max's soccer practice but had time to meet them for dinner. Since I had ridden in the morning, I rode home while they drove. I started slowly. At Wilson Rd., I surprisingly heard Max's voice behind me as Peggy drove up in her car. With a step ahead of them and suburban intersections that I rode through, I picked-up the pace and got home ahead of them. I hadn't been home in the evenings much lately so I struggled with Max trying to get him to read before letting him sleep.

From Northfield Rd., Greenwich Park, to Old Georgetown Rd. to Beech Dr. to to Singleton Dr. to Bulls Run Pkwy., to the trail along the school to Bradmore Dr. to Folkstone Rd. to Hartsdale Ave. to Heampstead Ave. to McKinley St. to Garfield St., to Roosevelt St., to the trail at Jefferson St. to Northfield Rd. It was in the low 80s but 70% humidity. I felt okay the first uphill mile or 2. After that I slowed a lot on the uphills.
