friday means ready to ride

I put in ten miles today at around 9:00 pace on the advice of a runner friend. Should be my last ten plus run before the marathon. Ended up being somewhere around 1200 calories spent, I think.

Got some laundry done earlier in the day, set up a few meetings, and got some work accomplished as well as some clean laundry.

I ended up having to brag about the gift I bought for A, but sometimes you have to crow about the good things you do, I guess. At least it didn’t get lost altogether.

I can’t wait to ride tomorrow. I’m going to pull my aero bars off my allez and ride that. I’ve been using my cross check as my training bike, and I love it, but I feel like taking my allez out for a little spin tomorrow so that’s what I’m going to do.

I really need another set of Keo pedals and a new set of cleats. My keo cleats from last year are so worn down it’s a joke. The screw heads poke out. None of my shops seem to have any in stock though.

Outback does have a set of Keos but they’re the carbon ones which means they’re going to be twice what the plastic ones are. I’d rather wait and order some from PBK or somewhere.

I’m watching the daily show and going to sleep. Can’t wait to ride tomorrow.
