Fern Ridge Path Bike + Hayward Run

July 17, 2008 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Bike

Weather: 80F, nice but breezy (per usual!)

Comments:
Felt OK going into this bike, but it was breezy again. I'm getting used to it, but my legs are tired from the constant biking this week. Can't believe I haven't gotten sick of it -- or listening to an hour of NPR -- but I haven't. Thank God.

Got back and was inspired by my 250m x2 runs from work to home today, so I went for a very easy jog to Hayward and back. Did drills and circuits there, which was TERRIFIC. I missed the magic of that place, of being there and getting in a hard day's work.

Knee was so-so. Goddamn it. Felt it a bit on the way out, and felt it a bit more on the way back. Not terrible, but bullshit given the 3+ days off and short, slow running. Could be from tight muscles and no taping, but c'mon...am I to assume this will completely fuck over my entire summer, in the same fashion the Achilles fucked over my ENTIRE spring? For fuck's sake. :|

Got back, stretched a bit and iced. Ate a salad, leftover omelette, and leftover TRANcake batter (cooked of course, with sugar-free syrup, which lessened the guilt). Trying to keep the weight down, and hoping the Aleve-popping has accounted for the weight gain. :|

In bed by 9ish. OK night's sleep.
