Here's the TEAM gathered for our last bike ride before we head off to Coeur d'Alene. Saturday we met at Castaic Lake for a swim, bike, run, and picnic :) The lake was nice, and we swam for about 45 minutes before we were kicked out. The bike ride was only 18 miles. I rode for one hour out, but it only took 30 minutes to get back. The downhill was nice, but there were some strong gusts of wind that scared me. It would really suck to have an accident 2 weeks before a race that I've been training 8 months for. And then the run ... 50 minutes. I was a bit sluggish all day, but Coach Paul says that's normal after the low key week we had. Today I only had to run for 1 hour! I got up at 8:30 after 10+ hours of sleep, had coffee and read the paper like a civilized person. I could get use to this!
Our bikes are being shipped and need to be turned in by Friday. I can send a duffle bag with the bike so I'm trying to get all my stuff organized .... without freaking myself out. Since we won't have bikes, I'm not quite sure what we'll be doing for our team workout next weekend, but I do know that it involves food at teammate Gregorio's house afterwards :)
