I did some of the TriDot Assessments today.
The Bike assessment is a warm up then 15 miles as fast as possible. Today was 29:06, which is a 3 minute improvement from January’s assessment.
This afternoon I did a 5k walk, the actual assessment is a run. But I’m still not able to run. I was surprised that I dropped 2 minutes off the walk. Some of the sidewalks and stuff was messy from the recent snow, but it didn’t seem to slow me down. My time today was 51:40.
Woke up and rode the other way on the bike trail. No wind but some crazy fog! It was supposed to be warm but that wouldn’t really happen while we were in town.
I rode to the next town over and took some pics. Iowa has a pretty nice trail system! Perry is the town were the race was held yesterday.
The fog lifted on my way back, but not before leaving some beautiful ice on the trailside fauna!
Starting a new month! Celebrating birthdays! Luckily the Mediterranean diet does include desserts!
I got up and rode my bike on the bike trail literally right next to our friends house in Iowa. It was super windy so I rode into the wind. I was soooo slow! The ride back was better but I also realized my tires were low, so I would’ve ridden better. Oops.
Also realized we were like 10 miles from a small town winter bike “race.” The Perry BRR. Unfortunately it was during the birthday party which is why we were traveling. Oh well!
I rode for about 55 minutes and 13 miles on the bike trainer in the morning. I’m catching up on a bunch to TED talks that were highlighted a few years ago for me. TED will send you random videos to watch so I’m trying to expand my horizons by watching them!
In the afternoon was the first ski lessons for the year. It was a sunny day and not too cold. We did about 1.5 miles of classic skiing.
Another stint on the bike trainer.. 11 miles in 35 minutes…
