Training Log Archive: Rosstopher

I've been pretty bad about posting training and races huh? I'll start working my way backwards and putting them in, but I'm posting today just to get the flow started again.

well, this morning was splendid, very pretty for biking to work. Sun was good, and just warm enough outside to feel like summer. I biked a section with a real cyclist up a hill, and I was hanging with him for a bit, even though he had clip-in pedals and such. Makes me wonder if I'd be noticably faster with my foot attached to the bike :)

sam got me a bike mirror for my birthday, and it's really fun to play with. I adjust the angle mostly for fun, since I don't normally get run over from behind by cars on my typical ride to work.

I'm headed out the door to bike home now....

Event: CSU Pine Hill
 

I biked to work, and then left early to try to get to the Park-O in time to help Sanne with the timing and the registration. I got really lost in sommerville. Plus it takes forever to bike on city streets, always waiting for stupid lights to change. the CSU page was down, so I didn't get directions before I left, I just biked up towards Medford.... not the best way to ensure a timely arrival. I threw my bike in the back of Sam's car after the sprint, and hung out with the peeps in Cambridge. They were suitably impressed by my bloodied legs... I could tell because they uttered phrases like "eww" and " do you want to clean up in the bathroom" and " are you sure you don't want to get some of the dirt out"
