Training Log Archive: Soupbone

Windy and cool, accomplished goal of a different route. I blew off the Bike O meet today because, I didn't feel like driving 2.5 hours to ride a route with only a few route choices due to direction of trail enforced. So I just saved gas and rode from home.

Usual low traffic ride, lots of standing water that is starting to stink in the fields.

Storm the Bastille 5k downtown Milwaukee. 5000 runners ?? I'll check that later. Not really a timed event, the bib numbers were useless, no real recording of times. It did start at 9:00pm or actually about 9:08
But I was just hoping not to get tripped up or anything as it was my first Storm the B race. Shirt and water after...cash after that...but there was a band playing before and after the race that were pretty good. A real city feel for the evening. Milwaukee has just about everything a big city has. Closer than Chicago by 50%. No tolls and I snaged afree parking space -:)
Oh and a short course by 160 meters, but a solid workout and there was some climb.

Longest ride if the year or 2. Great day not too hot.
