2012.44: 9/24 - 9/30

Sunday: Another sprint training day at Kissena.  I felt slow today.  My little peak that I had a few weeks ago has definitely come and gone now.  I pulled out a 12.81 flying 200.  My first sprint was against Mike(?) and HarryZ.  I started in the lead and just slowly ramped up the whole time.  Since rain clouds were coming over the horizon, Josh and I asked if we could sprint against each other.  I had the obligation to lead again, so that is what I did.  I must have been having an off day or something, because I wasn't following any of my usual sprint checklist.  Long story short, Josh beat me pretty handily with an early jump that I took too long to respond to.  Before the jump, Chris B was telling me to close up my gap in front of him, which I was trying to do, but I just couldn't ride slow enough to get him to come back up to me.  I guess that's something I'll have to work on.

Saturday: Went on a boat.  Fuck yeah, boats!

Friday: No riding.  Perhaps it was raining?

Thursday: I decided to ramble over to Northport in front of some mean looking clouds.  Fortunately I stayed dry the whole time.  I spent a lot of the ride checking out new areas that I've always meant to look into.  I found a nice climb that parallels landing ave, went to a couple of beaches, checked the progress on demolishing the psych center.  In Northport propper, I got a terrible latte.  Now I'm down another shop that I trust to make me coffee.  The ride back was uneventful.

Wednesday: No riding.  Did 5x1 min planks and 2x25rep transverse planks.  2 minutes rest between.

Tuesday: No riding.  Did some errands, raked some leaves.

Monday: Figured I would ride out on the mountain bike again.  I think I felt more confident this time.  I still dabbed two or three times.  The couple of steep curvy climbs at the north end still screw me up.  There also was a group of like 20 high school girls trail running in the opposite direction.  I would probably be annoyed if it wasn't a group of high school girls.
