going nowhere

saturday's ride went nowhere but accomplished some mental toughness and some homework and a movie and the Kona IM from a few years ago...yes that is right...due to weather issues (that never materalized....seriously...nothing but wind) the team was inside on trainers for our long ride...so i did 4.5h...read two chapters of nutrition through the life cycles...did a 2h workout that was circulating...and caught some bits of some funny movies...and sniffled through the IM video...good times...then came the run...

everyone had enjoyed the breakfast foods that folks brought to share...while i packed everything back in the car...and headed out for an hour run...i ran from the training center...down oltorf to s. 5th...to barton springs rd...through that newish park...to the water under first...then almost out to trails end by the newspaper building...and back again...i had a good run...it felt good....my legs were springy...as i was coming back i was feeling the need for fuel but my run was only an hour...and i knew i had recovery drink waiting for me...

back at the car i grabbed my phone and recovery drink and cooled down in the parking lot...called my mom to let her know that i was ok...no weather to speak of...then headed to p/u the farm share...two lil watermelons...yeah!...plus other good stuff....like we have basil again...and tomatoes...i love these weird texas growing seasons...we get a second crop of summer...

when i got home i ate half of a watermelon...omg so good...ate some regular food...and settled in for some homework...finished most of my reading by ~6.30...made dinner...relaxed...good training and fueling day...
