East lake to work with Lakemont crew. Pulled up the hill too fast and was tired for remainder of ride. Going climbing today and my legs feel a bit shot right now.

Climbing 1:30:00 [1]

1st time ever climbing!!

Cleared four 5.9's before becoming unstuck on a 5.10a. Finger strength was really tricky on the 5.10 and some of the 5.9's were tough too. Had great time though at exit 38 - "We did rock".

West lake home in great tailwind. My shorts are chaffing big time so took it handy. Shorts now in trash!

East Lake to work with Lakemont crew. Did 1/2 Lakemont hill beforehand.

Racquetball 1:15:00 [3]

Against Shawn for 2 which I won and then cutthroat with Pat Sweeny. He's pretty good but a frickin liability as I nearly got zapped multiple times. Took a racquet to the face early on too so I'm not playing with him again. I won after a magnificent comeback from the dead.

West lake to work. Felt like I had a flat the whole way and no zip in the legs. Might have been a bit of a headwind.

Swim 25:00 [3] 0.5 mi (49:59 / mi)

Easy swim at the Y.

Road Bike (Commute) 53:30 [3] 18.5 mi (2:54 / mi) +70m 2:51 / mi
shoes: Pearl Izumi Vagabond

West lake home. Scored a great tow from Woodinville to Redmond at circa 24-27mph. Saved me busting my ass.

Golf 1:00:00 [0] 2.5 mi (24:00 / mi)

Willows Run early 9 course with shawn and Bill$. Teed off at 6am on a cracking morning. Scores were not good although I salvaged credit and won the bacon with 2 birdies and a par on the last 3.

Had a breakfast bun there which is the most calories I've had for breakie in years - could hardly run later.

Road run 45:00 [2] 6.0 mi (7:30 / mi) +20m 7:25 / mi
shoes: Brooks Glycerin #1

Really bad stitch for the 1st 30 mins until my breakfast bun dropped down a bit - that thing was enormous and sitting in my stomach all the run.

still, at least I got out and did something!
