Those Who Tri

Yesterday's recovery day was much-needed. Although I wasn't sore from Sunday's swim/run, my legs were completely beat for most of Sunday, and still felt tired on Monday.

Tonight the group descended on Paint Creek Bicycle to learn a little about road/tri bikes from our coach (and the gracious shop owner), and for a cycling session.

Having my mountain bike on a trainer (a thing you put on the floor so that you can ride your normal bike indoors) was a bit harder than riding a standard stationary bike. The knobby tires didn't help, and our 45 minute training session felt about as hard as the hour-long sessions that Danielle and I have been doing at Lifetime.

I'm glad to have learned the ins-and-outs of road/tri bikes. This mountain bike is gonna have to go!
