I got snowed on riding home from work last week!
I trained more this year for the Michigan Trail Marathon and ran evan slower than last year. It's frustrating to know I ran over an hour faster for the same race less than ten years ago. It's not only aging that's taken a bite out of my speed. These knees of mine are constantly aching. The food was good at Zou's Zou's and there are a couple of more Starbuck's opened along the route to the race. Next year the REI in Ann Arbor will definately be on the tour! Of course I didn't do myself any favors in the run by doing my longest bike ride in a couple of years (76 miles) a week before the race. I got to practice my flat fixing routine during the ride too-I got two flats! Did you know that the glue in those little tubes that come with the flat kits will evaporate if given enough time?
It was my best bike commuting month so far this year.
March bike miles=333.4
April bike miles=469
2008 miles=1128.8
Price of one gallon of gasoline=$3.59 (and rising)
