Last Long Training Ride Before the Race
Today was the perfect day for a training ride. Cloudy, 68 degrees and light breezes. Climbed up Skyline out of Oakland, over Wildcat Canyon to Grizzly Peak and down through Tilden Park into Contra Costa County. Again, lots of climbing but the legs felt good. 6 hours yielded 85 miles which I am good with considering the climbing. Nutrition breakdown: I averaged 150 calories an hour and drank one large bottle of fluid per 1.5 hours. Didn't feel thirsty or hungry. Got rained on a bit but really got rained on when I got home and found out the Giants lost! Nothing that a large Korean dinner can't cure. Now it's time for a Skinny Cow and then crawl into bed with my girl. Long run and swim on deck for tomorrow. Good night all.
