2 rides this weekend (No intervals on the weekend):
2:40 min @ NP 190. This was actually a good thing, as it was done with an eye-bleeder of a hangover, and but for the fact that I was going to meet a friend at 730am to do it, would have stayed in bed. Initial bouts of nausea aside, this was really encouraging as earlier this winter there was no way to do this route without having it be pretty challenging. The bonus was that this same buddy (who is in much better shape generally) picked up the Coggan/Allen book during the winter holidays and asked me if I had lost my mind. At the end of the ride, he admitted that he mistakenly thought that the "computer stuff was ********."
1:44 @ NP 209. (Tri bike). New PR for that particular route, which included stoplights, 2 good size (1 mile and half-mile hills), slowdowns for traffic etc. Plus it was fun to pick up a train in the park.
