A.W. Stanley 5K in New Britain 27:20/8:48 I was so close to my sub-27 goal! The race was the first annual, which is pretty cool. Might have to do it every year now. The course was great in the beginning. Good amount of downhill. But there were some hills on the last mile, including a grass uphill to the finish. I couldn't push it any faster. My Garmin clocked 3.15 so my pace on my watch was 8:40. My splits were 8:40, 8:43, 8:40. I'm satisfied. 33 out of 149, 11th female, 2nd in AG - though no awards 26 running miles for the week Sun. 14.35 m bike ride - 14 mph - I learned how to use clipless pedals, even though that is the stupidest reference because you clip in and clip out so how can it be clipless? SMH I did so awesome on the ride, started to brake a few feet from my driveway, couldn't get my shoe unclipped fast enough and promptly fell to the ground clipped in. I started laughing. Luckily, no injury. ceb - Monday, June 14, 2021 at 02:56:47 (GMT) (subtract 4 for local time) 10 miles (Sunday) at 10:25/m on new route to Ayer Rotary then right onto Barnum Road through Fort Devens to Jackson Road and left onto West Main Street in Ayer -- and back via Pirone Park.

Great to hear and a fine picture of you with the group there! 3.0 miles today (Wed) after not running for 7 days due to something I am going to see a doctor about on Monday the 28th.

My running took a back seat this week due to a long bike ride and the gym. The boys and I have been having a lot of fun going to the gym. Don't remember if I mentioned that Andrew is trying to gain weight and needs to eat 3000 calories a day. I freakin' wish I had his problem! LOL Week in review: Mon. 5 m/9:48 + gym Wed. 4.5 m/9:34 Thurs. 2.5 m/9:38 + gym Sat. 31 m bike/13.9 mph + gym Sun. gym - used the stair climber, sweat pouring out of me like it was raining on the machine LOL On Sat., I was able to lift 95 lbs twice on the bench press machine. It does assist in that you don't have to balance the weight so easier than doing it freestyle. lrb - Tuesday, June 29, 2021 at 14:06:07 (GMT) (subtract 4 for local time) Did a short 2 mile wog early.
