Commuting to work

I rode home from work last night, putting in some extra distance along the way by picking up a loop that leads from my employment into Whitley County. Whitley's a good name for a State county. Is was beautiful...green, twisting roads, blue skies. The world looked so fresh and new, the result of Spring, but out in this area of the world there is no liter. Few cars. Old barns. Nice and peaceful. People waved to me as they passed. No bugs yet. I scared three horses as I cleared a hill - they powerfully stroad away from the side of the street. I saw a huge sheep dog guarding goats. Two turkey vultures circled in the sky - making me feel a bit uneasy. I'd much prefer to sight a passing hawk than a vulture.

Put in 28 miles.

Wednesday I woke to cold weather and had to ride to work, where my car sat parked. I bundled up, and hit the 27 degree weather for another 18 mile trip into work. Uneventful ride - just base mileage. I have to do part 2 of my Speed Work: 600 Meter Supersets. 200 Meters running as fast as you can followed by 400 meters at 90% effort. Gross. That will be four workouts in two days.
