Great weekend. I had another session with Jay on Friday afternoon after work. And he wasn't even grumpy and that was before I had told him how good I had been about rolling and stretching. Anyway, sessions with Jay and faithful rolling worked. I had a terrific run on Saturday morning - just under 9-1/2 miles done on 3/1.
That was all I did, athletically, on Saturday.
On Sunday I went on a bike ride with a bunch of people I know from Crossfit. Although my average was only 4.3, that is misleading because of the type of ride it was. Stopping to let people catch up and riding on streets (traffic and signals) contributed to it being low. Either it was the phenomenon of riding with a group or maybe just getting stronger, but this really was a good ride. I'm hoping to ride with them regularly.
We didn't go as far as Wilderness Park so, alas, no pictures of ducks. I should have taken a picture of Ivan in his tuxedo cycling jersey, but I didn't. We did get a group photo of us taken and it is posted on Facebook, but it isn't a good enough picture to actual identify any of us so I won't repost it here.
I went on a 2-1/4 mile run after. Yes, it was really, really hot by then. I did the run and that's all we are going to say about that.
I am really encouraged. I had gotten a little discouraged because it seemed like no matter how hard I was working, I wasn't making any progress. Two sessions with Jay and doing my "maintenance" and progress is happening.
