Top of the Key

Woke up extremely groggy, only had a bottle of wine at dinner. Tried to stay up for the ball drop, Jess had to wake me a few seconds before. Finally got on the bike at 8:45 am. I knew if i kept putting it off to later in the day, it would make that much more difficult. Legs felt fine though, much better than monday’s ride. I settled into the z3 pace for 22 miles. Ran quickly after that, with only a .5 mile warm up in z2, then a solid 5 miles in z3. This was very tricky, the roads are extremely icy now, after melting/freezing back up each night. And the temperature just isn’t getting warmer. So a few slips and some sliding around, some tip toeing too. But got the milelage in averaging 7:58 min/miles. That should be around my z2 pace, but with the conditions I’m happy.

Got a good start on sleep for the night, tomorrow is just a swim.
