I'm a family guy who is addicted to swim/bike/run and anything to do with getting out into the backcountry wilderness areas. This blog focuses on the swim, bike, run and other various aspects of my attempts to finish in the top ten percent of my age group in whatever race I do. It used to be all about finishing the legs of an Olympic Distance triathlon: swim in 20 minutes, bike in 60 minutes, and run in 40 minutes. Now, it's more about training well and finishing well.

Good bike workout
Nice bike training today. Did the Portland hill simulation route twice. Times were equivalent to best times this year for the most part. Best part about it was that I didn't feel really tired afterwards, and it felt short (I know it wasn't shorter than normal). Those two things put together tell me it was a good workout. My second hill was faster than the first, I think because I came up out the aero position a bit and could get better power out of my legs and breathe bettter. A little bit of wind but nothing significant. Nice day, too!
