| Met Darin and Dave at LGRAW at 6:45. Dave had this idea of doing our own mini-tri. First we rode single-track trails on our bikes for about 50 minutes (6.2 miles), then ran 4 miles on the road, then swam about 1/2 mile. It was a great workout! Went to breakfast w/ Dave afterwards - where I managed to lock my keys in the car (I realized immediately - this is the second time in the 3 months of owning this car - I'll never get used to the push-button start, it's too easy to leave the keys in the console). Long-story short, found out locking my keys in the car is covered under my new car warrantee! Only costed me a $5 tip! It was a good morning. 75F, Sunny

Early morning run w/ Darin. It was 85 when we started. It really wasn't too bad. The dip in the pool helped afterwards. Mountain biking after work today - supposed to be about 103F, but at least it's in the shade!
AP: 7:50
85F, N4, clear PM Workout: This week is was just Mike and I at the trail. It was 104F when we started our ride. My goal was to make the entire 11 mile loop without taking my feet off the pedals. I ended up coming short of this goal - I had to stop 4 times (the first time was when I shifted just as I was heading up a hill, which caused my chain to slip off the front deraileur). The other 3 were on particularly steep climbs. I think the heat took a bit of a toll on me. We finished in an average of just over 8 MPH (a bit quicker than my last 2 weeks). I'm getting better and really enjoy it. We finished in about 1:15, and it was still 101F. I'm glad the trails are in the shade!

| Got a late start. Took the boys to the rail trail. Planned to do 12 miles, but turned around at 3.25 -- the boys were too hot. It was about 90F. (I'm counting every mile of riding as 1/2 mile of running)
