Flash Friday, well splash Friday

Soggy day today, and it's not getting any better.

I should have run this morning while the rain was lite. I did not. Now I have to contemplate the distance that I want to slog around in tonight.
This was a HUUUGE mistake.
This is also very likely going to effect Saturdays long ride.
It is the 1st weekend that the stars had aligned where ; A- I was going to get to hook up in a large group ride (for the entire ride) not just jumping in.
 B - I don't think Ive seen  http://www.theroadmultisport.com/ since Big Rock Tri in October (and we live almost around the corner from each other). I was supposed to ride with his club.
C - If this keeps up, and its suppose to, we may not get rides in at all.

The upside is no work.
 Don't take that the wrong way, I'm thankful for a job.
 I just enjoy weekend freedom.

Sounds like myself and http://www.enduranceathleteproject.com/ may get time to set down for a few minutes and lay out my kit for Surf City race. That would be a good thing. Oh WAIT, same guy. Still never see him.

I have no kids this weekend. My wife will randomly be shopping etc.. I'm sure.

But I really love to ride and  I feel like my bike fitness could be slipping from my grips. Ive went from 2-4 rides a week to 1 weekday 22-25 miler and 1 weekend 35-45 miler.
Miles are longer, but I like that consistency.
I have to keep reminding myself that I am training for a 1/2 marathon, not a Century ride.
Another  4-8 weeks and it's going to be back on for steady swim,bike,run training.  

So no training yet today. However I'm guessing about 5 mile run in the crud.

GET SOME !!!
People have a good weekend train hard, train smart.

  1. It is looking grim. I'm going to run in Bolsa Chica after I see you if you want to go. If I'm going to get wet I might as well get dirty as well.

  4. Thanks for hooking up Patrick. When you called I was just getting ready to call and pull the plug. I got a run in later. I did what I felt I should do with my wife. I think you get it.
