Ran most of the City of Oaks route. My legs were dead for most of the run, perked up a little in Umstead, then dead again coming back on Hillsborough. Going out Ebenezer Church, in the dark, solo, is creepy.

I still don't see this as a BQ opportunity...

Climb: 1020 feet



Rode with Paul; I rode the roadie, and it KILLED my shoulders...as Paul said, I peaked last week. This was a tough ride. Gusty winds, we went out a little too hard, and I had nothing left for the last 10 miles.

Watched most of the Kona swim prior to starting the ride. Paul and I were amazed at the separation of the lead pack.

20-mile run tomorrow...

Railroad Grade road, from Brown Road up to 221, then to Riverside, back to Brown Road. Climbing up to 221 was a blast! I felt very strong on the road bike.
