Day 1 free weights - goes fast if everything is in super sets.
Then I assembled the bike and was pleased to see the giant golf bag the baggage attends saw fit to throw on top of my soft sided bag obviously containing a bicycle - caused no harm at all.
It was odd that the whole kit was soaked though.

Rolling the Sunday tri bike course with flight. A super flat course for being so close to gnarly hills. I did forget my snack and didn't have enough fluid, or any sun tan lotion - so not the best planning, but we hadn't initially planned on doing the second loop.
Much of the road was a bit rough - to the point I was thinking they routed the bikes on the worst roads in the area. There was also a fair bit of sand in some of the bike lanes.
But much better than the snow laddened trees we left - which were pretty, but not cycling friendly.

Rode home from the grocery store after lunch to get in my distance for the day. Riding immediately after standing around the grocery store was not a great idea, resulting in a heart rate much higher than normal for the pace. A good head stand session was required when I got back.
BUT: first day of March I rode my age. I haven't quite decided what the challenge will be, but I'm thinking I will count how many days I ride my age, and then each year as long as I don't ride my age any fewer days, I can consider myself NOT OLD YET.

trainer spin in street shoes - the extra sleep yesterday might have lowered the heart rate - the pace was the same as last week.
