Ironman

The MN Ironman Bike Ride this weekend.
And RAAM meeting/training/simulation.

Monday
Ran 8 mile Mercy Hospital route.
Rode to Cub Foods with Lilly. On the way
home the heavens opened up and we were
instantly soaked. Lilly was MUDDY from
the road spray on her "blue thing".
She cried the whole way home (it stunk).
We climbed in the shower while mom made cocoa.
What a trooper!

Tuesday
Rode 1hr in the morning.
Rode 3.5 hrs in evening w Dave Hemstad
and the Trailhead group. Good ride.

Wednesday
Easy day.
Walked Boo in the morning.
Rode with Lilly for picnic at "sledding hill" park
and then on to Dad & Lilly class.

Thursday
Ran 8.5 mile Champlin route.
Rode an easy 1hr in the rain. Pretty warm
just tooling around.

Friday
Rode 1:20 on spin bike at work.
Hard tension, low RPM.

Saturday
Woke up to 1" of snow, 29 degrees and 30+ mph wind.
We had planned a simulation day for RAAM and decided to
do our inside discussion/planning/organizing stuff instead.
We did get out in the parking lot for a few exchange walk throughs.
I ran 8 miles later in the evening.

Sunday
MN Ironman Bike Ride
The group decided on 62 miles. Very fun day.
