 | Mtn Biking 1:17:00 [1]17.6 km (4:22 / km) | |

| Two separate trips of similar intensity. The coolest thing is that Jasper rode the entire way on his own bike. First was a trip to the Farmer's Market at Hiawatha and Lake. Next was a trip to the Mid-Town Global Market for the Global Bike Fest. It was Rena's first ride in the bike carrier and she did pretty well. Got a little feisty by the end--Rena, that is. |

| Great run at Hyland, starting at Richardson Nature Center. Went towards the ski area, climbed the ski jump heill, then followed the trail along the top of the ski area. I basically did one long loop of all the ski trails and ended back at the nature center.
I saw a deer and an osprey was perched on top of the nesting box by the nature center. |

| Met Molly halfway home from work and rode with her to get coffee. Then Jasper got home and wanted to go for a ride. Went on the Greenway across Hiawatha, then back to River Rd and past Minnehaha Academy. Very good ride, finished off with Chipotle. |

| Mtn Biking 1:30:00 [3]32 km (2:49 / km) | |
| |
| Decided to do long ride today even though we plan to go to TNT. Rode with Molly to work, then through downtown to the Kennilwirth trail. Out to Wirth to the mountain biking trail for a couple laps, then back home along the Greenway. Inconsistent effort on the way out because of traffic lights and not being sure where I was going. On teh way back I was pedaling pretty well. Distance is a bit of an estimate. My computer battery went while I was at Wirth. |
| Mtn Biking 50:00 [3]12.3 km (4:04 / km) | |
| |
| Two loops of the longer section and one of the shorter at Wirth. Distance is a bit of an estimate. Anybody have exact length on the loops? Fun to be out when responsible people are at work or in air conditioning or both. |

| Fun TNT set by Stephen R around his neighborhood and Minnehaha Creek. Could not sind number 2 on the way out and left it for the return. As I was heading for it, Mike C was trying to sneak into the control without me seeing him. Luckily, I saw him duck into the creek because I had overrun the control again.
It ended with a foot race with Mike. Luckily I did not get caught by traffic or he would have beaten me. Very fun TNT. 3 nights, 3 different types of navigation. Excellent. |

| Franklin/Lake loop before work. My legs are very sore from Saturday. Maybe that is what not doing any intensity work and then racing causes. Felt a lot like work today. Glad to get it in before it gets too hot. |
| Road Biking 30:00 [2]7.0 mi (4:17 / mi) | |

| Commute with short detour. Trying not to sweat. |

| Paddling 20:00 [1]0.5 mi (39:59 / mi) | |

| Had to make use of the borrowed boat one more time before we took it back. Jasper and I went out on Nokomis while Molly and her mom were walking. Took or fishing poles along too. Very fun. |
| Running 12:00 [2]1.0 mi (11:59 / mi) | |
| |
| I'm logging this because it was an attempt at a longer run that was cut short by an unhappy rider in the Chariot. Rena wanted no part of the run to Minnehaha Park for ice cream with Molly and Jasper. Still not sure if I'm more bummed about missing the workout or the ice cream. Ice cream, definitely. |
