So when I mentioned I went biking in the rain last week--I was totally kidding, because yesterday I really went biking in RAIN. Naomi & I were going to head on a long journey over GW Bridge to NJ--but due to the weather & chance of thunderstorms we just biked in Central Park. (Knowing it would most likely rain). Well it did. Pouring. It was extremely fun--the only difference between us and a swimming in a pool was that we were on bikes! There were points where we were the only ones on the path, and some hard core runners. I ended up totalling 30 miles. Not to shabby. What an adventure. The worst part was cleaning off my bike last night after I had washed my floors. Uggh. If it rains over the Hazon weekend, I will have gotten in my rainy cycling practice!

2 Weeks to go!
Woo hoo. So excited for this year's ride. They emailed us the 2010 route which sounds great. I biked 13 miles on Sunday in the rain. It wasn't raining to badly, but I figured I might as well see what that is like (in case it rains on our ride!!) Last night I biked 20 miles in Central Park...So nice, especially right after sunset & crickets --- Felt suburban :-) I am still deciding how many miles to bike the first day so I may be accelerating my training a bit! The second day is for sure 60 miles. Check out the map above!
I have been running 3 or 4 miles twice a week as well. Seriously who am I these days...I actually enjoy RUNNING now! This week at work I ran a 5K on Wed and it was my best ever. 30.12 minutes.
