Training Journal

I am training for both Xterra triathlons and mountain bike races. I am not very fast yet(thus the need for training). If you have suggestions for how I could improve my workouts, leave a comment.

Morning downhill

I did a ride this morning. It rained during the night so the trails were wet. I wasn't planning to go very far, but ended up going almost 10 miles. Anthony and I rode from the temple up clarks. Then at the top of clarks we find a trail that we hoped took us over to the new Maple Hollow downhill trail. Eventually we got to the street and just rode to the trail on the street. Then we went down it and back to the car on the road. The trails were wet, and the one at the top of Clarks was very narrow so we got soaked in the long grass on both sides of the trail. Maple Hollow was hard because of the lack of traction from the mud.
