Friday (4/1/11)

I ran 5 miles in 37:37 (7:31 min pace).  Nice, easy, wonderful miles.  It is nice to run at this easy pace, but sometimes it feels easier to run at the faster pace.

This afternoon I took the road bike out for 30 miles.  It is only the second time I have had a real ride on the bike thus far since I bought it, due to the cold and snowy weather.  It felt really, really good.  I biked out to Antelope Island, which is a really nice ride.  I took it a little faster going out, just wanting to see what I could do.  This is basically all flat riding.  I averaged 18 mph on the way out, without pushing myself too hard.  At one point I did decided to push it for just a short distance and got it up to 23 mph.  On the way back I decided I would just take it a bit easier due to my long run tomorrow.  My overall average for the entire ride was 16 mph.
