| Skipped the run today as knee still felt funky and really didn't have time. Will hit it with long, easy exercise tomorrow. |

| With Erin and Kristoffer plus Loki, up the Weathersfield Trail to the summit and back down the Brownsville Trail. Beautiful view from the summit. Good trail conditions. Enjoyed having the company to push me along and having two cars to do the traverse. Up 58/down 45.
Hammered knee on the way down. See how it feels for an easy run tomorrow. |
Wednesday Aug 8 |
| Bicycling (Brownsville/Hartland) 2:15:00 [2]25.0 mi (5:23 / mi) | |
| shoes: Grey Ghost Roubaix |
| Checking out route of 25 mile Harpoon Brewery ride for Saturday with Ruthie. Got to do everything except visit the brewery. First half gradually uphill, then a screaming 3 mile drop into Hartland. Should be fun with a couple hundred riders at wildly varying velocities. First time Ruthie was out this summer, so took our time. |
| Roller skiing (Andover Rd) 49:22 [4]8.4 mi (5:52 / mi) | |
| weight:162lbs shoes: V2 Aero |
| Got out of the shower after the bike ride and Tom called to go rollerskiing. Waited at the start point for a half hour and then took off, annoyed he didn't show. Had enough irritation I headed out at a fast pace. Met him on the way back and turned around for more. Kept a good pace all the way to the finish (3.40/km).
Net out and back loop 40.22/6.8 mi.
Pullups 10 |

| Hot, muggy, but felt like doing a hard run, so pushed it anyway. Brought some water to keep hydrated. Heat took its toll, but ok with the run. |
Monday Aug 6 |
| Roller skiing (Rte 103) 1:09:30 [3]10.1 mi (6:53 / mi) | |

| Down the main drag towards I-91 starting from the high school. Nice wide shoulder and rolling hills. This is also part of my bike tempo ride, so getting to know it pretty well. Felt good. |
