Still plenty of snow in the mountains

Took a short trip up American Fork canyon this morning before work. If you get off the packed trails you sink upto your hips, but if you stay on the trail the riding is great. 

It is so cool that snow biking has taken off in the last couple of years which has made American fork canyon a summer fall and winter biking playground.

A Brick?

John didn't show up for Spinning this morning. Tomorrow is my day off so I am going to eat some breakfast and then try doing the 20K and 5K distances of a sprint. I have been running after the Spinning, but I think I am taking too much time between the two to count as a brick. So I will leave my shoes by the door so I can do a quick transition from bike to run.


Well... I did it. Now all I need to do is add in a swim and I have a sprint tri.

I don't know the difference between a K and 1024 bytes, so I changed my Garmin to metric to get use to it.

Ironman?

My son has been trying to talk me into doing an Ironman for a couple of years now. I've finally decided that I will start getting ready to do it. I know I can bike the 112 miles, I may be able to swim 2.4 miles, but I know right now I could not run 26.2 miles.

So today after doing my normal hour Spinning I went for a jog down the road and back. I know it isn't far or fast but I need to get my legs use to running instead of just biking. I think I will continue with short jogs like this for this week and then up the distance next week.
