Breakfast, RAAM Solo Finisher, Airport

The title sums up the morning.

I rode the fixie with half a dozen others to breakfast in Annapolis.  We had a nice, easy, conversational pace the whole way down.  After breakfast, we eased over to the RAAM finish line, and after waiting only a couple of minutes, got to see David Misch from Austria finish 5th in the RAAM Solo division.  He looked pretty good for having ridden 3,000 miles in 9 1/2 days.

Following that excitement, we made our way back home, and then Mike and I rode to the Airport where he was going to work.  After dropping him off, I proceeded back to pick up my car at the hospital.    I struggled a bit on the fixie this morning.  I’m simply tired.

And so ends an uneventful week of riding.  I won’t be back on the bike until Tuesday and will appreciate the rest.  My left Achilles tendon is a bit sore and can use the break.  I only had 130 miles on the week.  I need to get that much higher as I ramp up for a big October.
