Note

Only four tourneys, so I can host an o meet I think. Once I finish this paper, I'll see what's what. Combo night/day o? Vote in comments.

8 AM

Biking 13:45 [3] 0.53 mi (2.3 mph) +11m
shoes: Unicycle20

Went to practice, but my seat post kept twisting. There is no knurling at the spot where the clamp clamps when you have it at the max line. Everywhere else: yes, knurled. Max line position: no knurling under clamp. Went home and dropped the seat an inch or so, which is less pleasant on the knees but at least the seat doesn't rotate anymore.

10 AM

Biking 38:00 [3] 1.4 mi (2.2 mph) +2m
shoes: Unicycle20

I decided to make a pareto chart of my trick-in-development. I counted how far each attempt went, binning it into 2' baskets. Here is the distribution of the 64 attempts. You can see I mostly commonly make 8', which is roughly equal to two crank revolutions...perhaps not a huge surprise.

Running 14:08 1.26 mi (11:13 / mi) +5m 11:04 / mi
ahr:136 max:157 shoes: Brooks Ghost Swagger

Sick wife = Panera soup retrieval. Easy when you pre order - just jog in, grab a bag, any bag really, and sprint out.

1 PM

Biking 35:11 1.01 mi (1.7 mph) +1m
ahr:138 max:187 shoes: Unicycle20

50% improvement in expected distance. I feel on the cusp of a breakthrough - I can feel when I've got it almost locked. Everything moves slower, it's more relaxing. I normalized by the runs so this should be a probability chart now. You can see the orange session starting to smear outward, and not quite as clumped at the low/no distance.

Note

Considering dropping my 34T front to 32 or 30 for WT, since I don't remember spinning out much except during the short courses when I was too tired to care anyway.

12 PM

Walking 34:18 [1] 1.83 mi (18:46 / mi) +1m 18:44 / mi

Buddy and I eat lunch on Wednesdays and have taken to walking around a little after. We decided to explore the MUP near the trash heap mall. Surprisingly wildlife-y, with herons and ducks near the ponds.

5 PM

Running 32:48 3.12 mi (10:31 / mi) +34m 10:10 / mi
ahr:144 max:161 shoes: Brooks Ghost Swagger

Steve was a little close for comfort at Green Corn Moon.

The two track part was wide so no PI ankle worries.

Biking 23:56 0.7 mi (1.8 mph) +1m
ahr:117 max:132 shoes: Unicycle20

Legit 20 foot length on new trick, a pair of 16 foot runs, still mostly 0-2'.

Tried to ride on a narrow curb but couldn't get started.

I can now hop a half dozen times, but I have to cheat and start by holding onto something (pole, railing).

Walking 43:43 [3] 1.41 mi (31:00 / mi) +3m 30:47 / mi

dogs + ice cream = slllloooooooooow

8 AM

Biking 1:03:14 15.78 mi (15.0 mph) +11m
ahr:124 max:190 shoes: Long Haul Trucker

Leisurely and late ride into work. I should really pack at dinner time the night before, and also be less lazy when I get up.

Weather was terrific! Upside to later departure: mostly empty roads.

LHT now has 1000 miles.

4 PM

Biking 1:04:29 15.75 mi (14.7 mph) +125m
ahr:133 max:173 shoes: Long Haul Trucker

Not too bad, traffic was tolerable near work, even through a mild draft when I first got on Hines, and all the intersections were cooperative. Exiting Hines, I came up to Plymouth Road to find some sort of multi fire truck situation, not sure what was up, but my direction was getting through so I wiggled around it. Then I found a new shortcut through some parking lots near the house.
