What a weekend. It was warm and gorgeous. Saturday was a day of running and I did the same route I've done for the past few weekends and felt tired and heavy but my time was a tiny bit better than the last few times so I call that a victory. 7.5 Miles in 1:26:38 at an average of 11:33 minutes per mile. My last mile was my fastest so that felt great when I looked at the stats. I was going to run again on Sunday but Paul asked if I wanted to do a bike ride with some friends, Scott and Kris and that sounded fun. It was a killer ride though. Meaning, it almost killed me. It was a gorgeous day but I haven't been riding that much and we ended up going 18.54 miles. It took us 3 hours and 50 minutes - the others could have done it faster but I was slow. And I was on a geared mountain bike - they were all on single speed 29ers! (Super hard). We climbed 2776 feet ride and while I was totally exhausted when I was done, I was proud of myself. And Paul told me that he was proud of the way I rode. That was sweet. I went to sleep super happy because of that and also, well, there was huge news in the world of the USA with the US having found Osama Bin Laden.
And this morning, me and the pup ran 5 miles. We were both pretty tired and slow. 5miles in 1:16 at an average of 15:15.
The photos are from the bike ride. We started in Mill Valley and rode to the top of Mt Tam (the first photo is from the top) then dropped down to the lakes (the second photo), rode around the lakes and then back up Tam (though not all the way back up to the top). Thank goodness. Oh, and we went to Weezy's for their delicious delicious burgers and fries. As you see, I am badly failing South Beach.
