Training Log Archive: Nadim

From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to 13th & C St. SW, Washington, DC. I was moving along, mostly by myself. Not working too hard, I got caught just before Georgetown but I passed the young woman on Water St. A guy who'd been behind her passed me next. As we took different routes toward the Kennedy Center I got ahead again. He diverged down Independence Ave. while I went up Ohio Dr. where it's safer. There had been a slight tailwind. My time is estimated since I'd failed to restart my watch at an intersection, only realizing it at Bradley Blvd.

From 13th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. to Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD. Leaving work had the advantage of there being less traffic. I kept a good cadence. There weren't many other cyclists out to push me and with a weekend or running coming up, I didn't want to overdo it; I'd have rather done this ride on Wednesday but with Samantha being sick, my plans changed.
