It's Hot!

It's 8:00 am, 80 degrees and headed back up to 100 today! The weather man said we have not had rain in 27 days and the yards are showing the stress from being thirsty. Yesterdays ride, even after 7 PM, was hot and draining. I like the heat though and will look back at this post in January and dream about sweat glistening on my legs as I slip into my windproof tights and warm jacket!

This has been a good week of training, even in the heat. Saturday will be my last ICUP race for the 2007 season since I need to get more weekend miles in. Ed Chauner does a great job putting together one of the best, if not the best, mountain bike race series in the country. If you like to ride fast challenging trails, treat yourself and do one of these races.
