Well, Steve and I have signed up for the Amtrak century again in September. I guess we better get some riding in. I've been traveling so much for work, that when I'm home, it just feels so nice to sleep in a little. But....I guess it's time.
This morning we did our 14 mile Huntington Beach loop. Not bad mostly 14 - 17 miles per hour. My heart rate seemed a little up, so I'm afraid I may have lost a little conditioning. It was nice to be back on the bike though. This year for training we need to get some hills in before the century. It's only a little more than 2 months.
After coming back from vacation in Kauai, on a morning jog though the neighborhood I had tripped on a raised sidewalk and banged up my knee and thumb. I didn't realize I also had sprained my left wrist. It seem to be healing, but when I tried lifting my carry-on suit case on a work trip to Minnesota, I noticed it getting sore again. We went to the doctor for an xray. It's not broken, but I'm in a wrist brace, taking Naproxen and the doc wants me to do physical therapy. Who has time for physical therapy?
What concerned me the most was being able to lean on my hands on the handlebars of my bike. The brace was annoying this morning, but at least it didn't hurt. OK, many miles to go.
