Cycling 2:05:00 [3] 36.0 mi (3:28 / mi)
Road ride. Started off with nice weather then got hit with some rain all of a sudden around Tridelphia reservior. Rode out of the rain back to Columbia where of course it had not rained a drop. My lawn is just dead brown grass and hard as concrete. Really could use some rain.

Very quick ride around the neighborhood on the Trek mountain bike just to loosen up my legs. I did extra squats on Monday and my legs are really sore. This did not help much because they are still sore.

Cycling 47:00 [3] 14.0 mi (3:21 / mi)
Short road ride after work. Did my "5 minute" time trial after climbing the hill on Tridelphia road. This is where I try to go from top of hill to the stop sign about 2.0 miles in 5 minutes. Have only done it once I think. Today's time was 5:12. Better than last time when I did a 5:45. It was kind of windy when I took off and actually I had wind with me for part of the ride which was fun.

Swimming 15:00 [2] 0.5 km (30:00 / km)
Did laps at the pool. I'm not into swimming too much because it's so monotonous. But, it's a good workout so might as well log it.

Weights 45:00 [3]
Total body weight training. Andrew and I went "white-water" tubing on the Potomac today in Harpers Ferry. Not too many good rapids because the water level is so low. Still fun. We did find a nice little 3 foot drop rapid that I went on twice.

Cycling 1:43:00 [3] 29.7 mi (3:28 / mi)
Great road ride. Kind of hot as I took off around 5PM, but then I went thru a very light rain in first part of ride and that cooled me off. Rest of the ride was great. I was just touring the back roads of Howard county, taking a very random route that I'm pretty sure I've never been on before.

It's week 3/day 1 of Couch to 5K running program for my son and me. This week it's 3 minutes run/90 second walk/5 minute run/2.5 minute walk - repeat. It's the first week with more running than walking. This program designed for true couch potatoes, but it's a start. If we can get into a routine maybe will keep going with more advanced program in the fall.
