My Legs are Beat Like a Bad Dog

Saturday-Sept. 22- 8.15 mile run (1 hr. 15 min.) south on Cherry Creek trail. Started out a bit slow, but ended up negatively splitting. I was averaging 9:30 miles on the way out and 9:00 on the way back. Last two miles were around 8:30-8:45. 158 HR Avg. /172 Max HR at the end, when I sprinted to a 7:20 pace.

Sunday-Sept. 23-26 mile bike ride through the Pinery (2 hrs 15 min.). I waterproofed the front bench and back steps this morning, so I got a late start. I left at noon under threatening conditions, so I didn't want to ride out to far. So I ended up doing laps in the Pinery. Mom, I went by the Cape Cod house that I showed you. The owner was out watering so I talked to her. She said she watched it for 13 months before it went on sale. She wrote a contract to buy it 4 hours after the sign went up! She told me the builder liked it so much that he had constructed one just like it in the Timbers (South end of the Pinery) for himself. So I had to go ride through the Timbers until I found it. Iwasn't nearly as cute as the gray one. Now my legs are shot from riding hills the whole time. I can't even do any yardwork. I guess I'll have to finish Rob's eval. Yuck. My last night with my little banshee house guests. :(
