Workouts:
Bike to Boulder 1:22:33, 12.9 mph, 17.8 miles, HR 142
Swim 1 hour with Stacey
Bike home 1:12:44, 14.7 mph, 17.82, HR 148

Notes:
Got inspired by a biker on the top of South Boulder Road, eventually caught up with him on 287 but he did pass me up the hill. Which is cool, I have a 7 lbs backpack, am 20 lbs overweight on a slow bike that is 10 lbs heavier than the race bike. So I still feel pretty good about catching up with him, he'd have no shot if I was on peddles :). Even now, when I am overweight. Hmm, still can get the heart ticking at 187, not for long though, perhaps 30 seconds or so. I still think it's a good thing to get it there once in a while, just to flush the crud out.

OK, so I neglected the posts for Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Ashley cat died on Thursday night at 10:30. I miss her a lot. 16 years. Ashley fuzzball, where are you now?

I still keep eating the same stuff, Sunday was the bad day but I had no desire to stuff myself with a hamburger or some such.

Friday: 1 hour swim with Jane

Sunday:
bike with Nancy to Lafayette to a coffee shop. Good coffee at Cannonmine coffee.
2:36:16, 22.62 miles, 8.6 mph, HR 91
Yup, slow and relaxed.

Smoked in my dream last night. Woke up with my mouth tasting like an ashtray.
