Beauty is...

watching the sunrise from your bike seat as you ride along the Potomac River. Breathtaking. I rode out to Hains Point today enjoying a quiet, blissful start to the day. Sixteen miles followed by some planned bike maintenance.

The weekend will be a lot of work on the bike, less than I want on the run but I'm trying to listen to my coach who is nursing me through a potential race-breaker injury. It's not really serious until you go to the doctor and get a diagnosis, so given that I have no health insurance at the moment I am avoiding that. Ice and advil, the miracle cure and as promised no griping on my blog.
