7 AM

Bike 2:32:00 [3] 36.6 mi (14.4 mph) +1500ft
ahr:137 shoes: LeMond Tourmalet

not quite The Hour That Champions Are Born, but close! cruised EZ and solo. passed a church advertising their sermon's title as "Attitude of Gratitude". perfect theme for the day. rode out to The Wolf for a delicious granola bar that somehow wasn't quite as delicious as i remember them being previously, i think their chocolate/cranberry/oatmeal ratio was off. but coffee was awesome! the Ptap is back after its summer vacation so i put that on the Tour Mallet for some data. joke's on me though because the wheel flatted at about my farthest point out. and then the battery died. but Attitude of Gratitude prevailed! permagrin on this ride. i like bikes.
12 PM

Orienteer 1:40:57 [4] *** 6.21 mi (16:15 / mi) +1125ft 13:53 / mi
ahr:155 max:182 11c shoes: Brooks Cascadia W9 blue

7.3k red course at Meramec State Park, set by Gary. after last year's emotional meltdown at this meet, i was determined to stay on the map - super focused on keeping a short-term plan in my head and made myself slow down whenever i forgot said plan or got distracted. i still made plenty of mistakes but caught myself with all of them and was able to relocate without too much trouble. even nailed a few tricky ones by being very careful. and then i dropped my punchcard at control #8 so none of it mattered anyway! Attitude of Gratitude! what a gorgeous, glorious day to be out in the woods! ebuckley with the win in 65 minutes.

tri club FP loop. 32F at the start! and i was the first one there, which never happens. waited a little and Irwin and Devon showed up. loop was fine, chatted the whole time. i knew HR was higher than i prefer but PE was manageable so went with it. L knee still a little tweaky but less than before. finished w about 400m hard effort (PMETR sim).

OT's night ride. aka EK gets crushed by guys twice her age.

i grudge the drive out to the mound, and almost didn't make it tonight bc of traffic. very nearly bailed, but made it w 10min to kit up and go. the guys just outclassed me the whole time. i knew they were fast, but really, this fast? dang! couldn't hang on the Katy, definitely couldn't hang up Terry or any of the following rollers. ha! sort of embarrassing but whatevs, i just went hard when i could and recovered when i had to. and they waited for me whenever there was a tricky turn. super nice night to be out! Skirmish Turkey also pleasant to ride after being cooped up all summer.

L knee still not behaving. i think i need some pro help on this one.
