Started the day with a great hike to First Water with my Dad. I haven't been in a few weeks for a variety of reasons and it is now dark at 5:30 in the morning. We had our headlamps, but it was still a little darker than we might have preferred.
Saw Ryan at the bottom of the hill. Actually, I saw the Crossfit Monrovia shirt before I realized it was Ryan.
After work was the dreaded hill repeats. It wasn't too bad. I started and ended with repeats between Highland and Grandview (.15 mile) and then four in the middle between Montecito and Grandview (.25 mile). I managed repeat #4 at entirely over 6mph, but I can't say that about the others. I'll do that distance for a couple more weeks and see if I can't get all of them over 7mph and then move up in distance. Just you wait, Sunday morning riders, I won't slow you down for long.
I stupidly shifted at one point and my chain came off. I am happy to report that although it took me a while, I did get the chain back on.
Then I did a brick run. That was hard. It definitely took a while to shake out the legs and make them cooperate.
