Under The Influence

Yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon's ride began with a few miles of warmup and eventually I was pedaling my bike with a vengence. The pace was mostly steady-state, with a couple of jumps and sprints thrown in, but I motored around the rolling 35+ mile Blackjack loop in just a little over and hour and a half, averaging about 22 MPH.

Maybe it was the full moon or the double (pronounced: doo-blay) espresso, but when I arrived home from playing at V's, around 9:30 PM, I promptly laced up my running shoes, strapped on my RayoVac headlamp (didn't really need it) and took off for a late-night run. When I got back I was still feeling pumped so I added some extra weights to my barbell and bench and knocked out 3 sets. By 10:45 PM I was finally feeling ready to call it a day.

This morning I'm feeling the risidual effects of those workouts - but it feels good, not sore. After some stretching I'll go log some easy miles.
