Back In The Saddle Again 3-27-11



It didn't snow last night as predicted, the sun is out and it is 40 degrees and windy. So what to do ?


Rake the yard, watch the Indy Car race , NCAA tournament to see who Butler gets next Saturday, Nascar race , take a run, OR

head to Towne Run and shake down the mountain bike.


Well the bike won so air up the tires and off I go! 15 miles later I am back with a Mad Hatter IPA, some chips the last half of the race and then UK and NC in the NCAA.


The trail was in wonderful shape, the flooding did move things around and added a couple new obstacle's but if I were in riding shape it would have been really fast.


It felt great to start jump and weave thru the trails , each lap more comfortable . My running will now begin to improve .

Last year the riding motion helping my lower running parts stay very loose for my morning runs . My back felt great and the runs in the morning kept the cardio good so I could motor around the trails .


So with the extended weather forecast , I should be able to ride every night this week . That is good this time of year because a good 2 day rain can shut the trail down for a week or more .


The plan is to hit the River Trail Park for 7 mile run. After this ride it should be really good .
