No run today. Road the mtn. bike for the first time this year...ended up going to FHE at the church. It took about an hour to get there, which surprised the bajeeberz out of me. The first 4 miles is really what killed me...nearly a 1000 foot climb at about 7 min/mi/p. Beyond that point it was easy treading. I really hate that most the roads I took had zero shoulder space and lots of crazy drivers so I tried my best to ride the white line and not get spooked and/or squished by the people in the cars who like to make their presence known. At one point I swerved over to ride upon the sidewalk as a means to protect my life. Fortunately there wasn't any low branches and little kiddos or any other threats during that time. It was a good ride. I barely made it back home just as the the dark of night beckoned across the sky.
