    @Mari33a Unfortunately, I wasn't - the weather simply didn't support swimming in the outdoor pool (temperature never got above 65F during the times it's clear of child-infestation). Boo. But today I did a half-marathon! AND a Zwift workout, because apparently my brain needs recalibration.

    So much gravel and loose sand today.

    I had to carry my bike up hills and over miles of sand.

    This weekend I ride The Benzie area ride in Michigan. My first organized ride.

    Unexpected ride yesterday evening

    I hear you on the kids and pool @wendsg. I like to swim on a Saturday cos too much going on during the week but they don't have an adults only slot then (only during the week). And there can be a lot of Dads with kids. They usually play ball across the pool or use the kids as footballs tossing them in the air with no regard for any other pool users The kids themselves are mostly really considerate! - Rant Over :D

    Pffff, here we just have the problems of the parents who don't bother paying attention to the kids, so they're wilding all over the danged place. Ugh. Gonna take my mother up on the offer to use the lap pool at their retirement community!

    Great workout today - went up the Alpe du Zwift. Robbed me of overall milage, but got me tons of experience points in Zwift and an easy ride down lol

    901 miles YTD. I need a super strong June and July to feel on track for 2023. One ride at a time. I’m also down 10 lbs with some fasting and restricting processed carbs and sugar. Feeling good!

    I rode today and was thinking Zwift is harder than in real life till that 15 to 20% climb that I had to get off and walk my bike up that hill.

    Did far less riding in May than I expected. I'm going to have to have a strong next couple months to get back on track as I will be traveling much of September and November and December are marathon training focused, so harder to get the mileage. Going to try to get as close to 1012 miles by June 30th- halfway through the year!

    6/5 Peloton 16 miles - various classes

    @Rich_SC Congratulations!!!! Great job!!

    Haven’t been posting because I’ve been on a forced ‘vacation’. But hey, there was a bike in the hotel, so I got riding done (and it's logged in Strava, so it happened lol). I did a makeup ride today for the missed daily 10 yesterday owing to being wiped from travel, and got back on track with the Zwift Fondo training plan by working out today.

    Ride 1 - 10.10 miles
    Ride 2 - 25.40 miles
    Ride 3 - 10.04 miles
    Ride 4 - 16.01 miles
    Previous - 328.72 miles

    Total - 390.27 miles / 2023 miles, 2nd run
