I think this is my 4th ride. Its a great tour because you get to ride through the scenic Loess Hills but only about 10 miles are actually hilly. Today was quite a challenge with the headwinds. It seemed to be moving against us. As we headed SE from Turin to Soldier, the wind was in our face. Then we turned SW to Moorhead and Pisgah but the wind was still in our face. The west stretch to Little Sioux wasn't much better. It wasn't until we turned north toward Onawa that it became our friend.

It was like a whole other ride after that. Ann said we averaged about 14 mph for the whole ride but on that 20 mile stretch we were rolling at close to 25 mph and it felt so much better. It was work but enjoyable work. Ann said she was bored because it was so flat but I'll take it over the downhills where I rode the brakes all the way down because the wind was moving me all over the road.

I must be in pretty good shape to be able to crank out 20 miles in less than a hour after 30 miles of working against the wind. Last year I was ready to quit at Blencoe and have Ann come back and get me with the car.

Squeezed in another ride in the morning before having to return the bike. This time I rode to the east toward the mountains so I had relatively easy return ride. About 1600 feet of elevation change on the ride...Did most of this in the bike lanes of the streets just to see how they were. Wish we had lanes like that here

Met the early birds at 5am for a loop around the east side, back to LT at 6am to pick up more...west side with Kathy, Rachel, and Sarah, running a few middle miles with Kathy in low-7s (felt good to increase pace for a little while). Since I didn't start at 4:30 headed back out while the others headed home and (luckily) met up with Court, Di, Jimmy, Macy and Swany for another east side loop...great to catch up with them and to see Di crush her 20!!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

1st 20 of this training cycle in the books. Yay! Started early thru neighborhood hills with Macy and Steph. Picked up Court, Swany and Jimmy and got to run a few with Ash as well. Definitely felt the humidity and fought the wind in a few spots but overall a confidence builder. Picked it up a bit from 17-19 and still felt like I had some in the tank. Thanks Court and Swany for finishing up with me. :)

I had not had a bad run for quite awhile. Today was tough. I was expecting 50's so the temp and humidity weren't much fun. I felt fairly ok, although tired, through about 8 miles. The rest was tough. Nothing in the tank. Wish I'd had a GU along the way. Only went out with water with NUUN.

Ended the run at the soccer fields to watch Ella's 8 AM game. She had a few goals then Mara had a few while I coached her team. They are both better players than I was at their ages. Thankfully my wife brought a towel, dry clothes, chocolate milk, and a Clif bar.

Off to the vet first thing. Mya has something going on. Hoping it's not serious but symptoms are concerning.

No run tomorrow. Taking a dryer up to Brea in Cedar Rapids. Cause that's what dad's do. Plus college reunion in Carroll, IA tonight in the middle of the severe storms that are supposed to hit. Geez I have fun.
