River Ride

We had a perfect day of weather here in South Georgia yesterday. Plenty of sunshine with highs in the 70s. KJ was itching to get outside and do something….and so was I. We loaded up the bikes Sunday afternoon and headed down to the river trail. We ended up with a little over an hour of riding time. We spent almost as much time stopping to enjoy the views of the river.



Heading out.









The first of many stops along the way.

Another view of the river.





KJ decided she needed to do a transition run after the ride.








And we finished off the ride with Gelato..








I’ve done absolutely nothing since IM Flordia. It felt great to get out and get moving a bit yesterday. John wants me to wait another week before doing any real exercise. I’ll be itching to get going by then.

My week of dietary debauchery has come to a bitter end as well. No more fried chicken or tacos followed by Krispy Kreme or Bruster’s ice cream...every day. It’s been awesome eating whatever and as much as I wanted for a week. My blood is probably the consistency of motor oil by now, so it’s back to healthy eating today.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.
Happy training,TJ
