53 miles today

Today was a super fun long ride. 53 miles at Carl Barton to celebrate a friend’s 53rd birthday. Big ride with lots of friends I’ve met along the way from many teams. Good times.

Managed to get my 3rd highest all time 90 minute power ride today to boot. Pretty remarkable after a fairly grueling week of IM training. Should have gone out a little easier and picked it up 10% second and third hour; but I always do it backwards. Gotta exercise some self-control and resolve this as I know it will help me at IMFL if I do.

No brick today and feeling really really good. All good signs. Hopefully can squeeze out a good 10 mile run tomorrow. Then a 4th swim and pilates to put the cherry on top this week of IM training.
