"nice" outside--time to get out and play!

Today was the beginning of a "warm" spell here in the mid-atlantic. For the first time this year we were supposed to get above 40 degrees! Yeee-hoooo!

So got up at 5 am and cruised a 45 minute tready run and then after dropping alex off at school headed over to NJ to take advantage of ice/snow free roads. It was 28 degrees when I started--positively balmy! but nice and sunny with only 10-15 mph winds. Warmed up during the ride which was slow but my longest since IM Canada back in august of 2008. ended up a little over 87 miles in a little over 5 hours....it'll do!

I'm tired tonight but happy to get a nice easy half-IM "overdistance base ride" in the bank.....

Hope to play some more outside before I head to sundance next week....
