Wednesday Ride and Thursday Swim


I tried out the new mountain bike after work last night with a nice ride up Waterton Canyon. It was fairly flat 6.5 miles each way. Then I explored a few miles of the Platte River down to Chatfield reservoir. All told, probably 20 miles of riding. It was incredible being in the mountains, smelling the cottonwoods, pines, and river in near perfect weather. I encountered a deer near the trailhead after the ride.

This morning I did the 6-7:15 workout at Highlands Ranch- only it is now 5:45 to 7:00 due to the kids workouts. Still I got in a good workout:
1 x 200 warmup
1 x 500 pull on 7:00
5 x 100 Race Pace on 1:40
1 x 400 pull on ?
4 x 100 Race Pace on 1:35
1 x 300 pull on ?
3 x 100 Race Pace on 1:30
1 x 200 pull on ?
2 x 100 Race Pace on 1:25
100 easy
100 Fast
200 warmdown
=3,400 yards
