Started early today so that I could get a longer ride in (the girls head off to school at 7:15 and I need to be home by 6:15 if I am going to feed the boy, get myself ready, and have them in the car on time). Easy pace---some headwind coming South but not significant enough to really boost speed outbound.

Finding that I have trouble really kicking it on the bike. Not sure why this is---I can run intervals just fine, but long sustained pushes are hard for me to do on my own. I probably need to join the UCVC crew and head down to Calumet Park for intervals one of these days---or at least get a riding partner to help push me along. Of course finding a riding partner who likes 5am is not easy...if you know anyone...
