Event: Raid the Rib
 

Super fun Raid the Rib down in Niagara. This race felt like a real adventure with the weather, terrain, course all out together. Raced with Tom and Chris and we all had a lot of fun and worked well as a team. I figured we'd be about 30 min back of the winners and in around 3 and a half hours. Well we held true to the first part of that, but we're out longer than I expected. I ended up running out of food and finished the race with a bag of ringelos to munch on. Glad to get out for the training. This was a real confidence boost building up for my spring ultras.

Aubrey was excited that I could now belay so we went back today together. They also had an Easter egg hunt going on so that was also exciting for her. We were there for 2 and a half hours, but the time above covers what I got to do.

Got out for an easy ride on my road bike. So nice and sunny.

Took a belay course so Aubrey and I can do more routes at the gym. After the course was done one other class member and myself climbed for a while to practice.

Harder intervals on the trainer to get the heart rate up there.

Rest of the time on the bike.

Lighter ride on the trainer, which was broken up into 2 parts, before Aubrey woke up and afterwards. Break in-between to fix her some fruit/tv shows so I could continue.

Woke up feeling pretty aweful (think I'm getting sick). I've also been dealing with tightness on my left ankle (just on the inside achilles?) So decided to skip my planned long run and sleep some more. Then Aubrey and I went climbing for the morning. We've progressed enough that we decided to buy a chalk bag because our hands are getting sweaty when we climb. Aubrey picked the "huggy" monster bag.
