nervous ride!

so i was totally freaked out to ride saturday without the mr. toughy in my rear tire...like race type nervous...it is just that little bit of extra security...seems silly...but anyway...it was just fine...started the ride from lost creek and 360...rode 360 through the arboretum...and ended up out on parmer...nice tail wind the whole way out that i didn't notice until i realized that there was a huge headwind on the way back...with a ton of folks...there was all of us from T3 and some TXFe folks too...jeremiah said one parked near all of us...quickly realized it was us and parked in another location...it's ok...we don't bite :)

rode with val again and a few others in and out...overall i had a really good ride...just over two hours for 40 miles...i was focused on my ride...and worked on getting the nutrition in on a schedule...i had two bottles of GEndurance (300 cal) a lara bar (200cal) cut in four pieces and some luna gummy things (100 cal)...was thinking that i would get everything down except for the luna things...those were insurance...did exactly that...had two of the six gummy things...and ate/drank all the rest...i decided that i would run a bit off the bike to test out the tummy and see how it went...nothing like running on lost creek...felt really good...so we've got a plan that works...maybe i will try another next week...

jusr relaxed for the rest of the day...baked a little...read a little...cooked a little...made some indian food in the crock pot (it was ok...needed more spice) and watch casino royal...that was pretty fun...

I didn't see you, but I did see half a dozen or so T3 shirts in my 'hood running Lost Creek at about 10am? Did y'all find some nice flat streets to run on? ;-)
