Mineral Wells Nordic Center (State Park). Lisa rode on the MW Trailway and I skied. I had scoped out the roads last spring when cycling. Nice ups and downs and good road surface. We passed through rain on the way but it was sunny and dry for us. I kept a steady effort and tried to be as efficient as possible. I was moving fast on the Aeros such that each 14k+ lap took about an hour. I added an extra trip down to the spillway and back up to get to 2.5 hours. Attackpoint is stingy with the climb meters; Garmin has me at 430 and Strava 480.
My glutes are tired. I'm going to dial it back this week
Today's lunch was at Natty Flat's BBQ in Mineral Wells. I liked it better than the Mesquite Pit. I had a large chopped brisket sandwich, a large pulled pork sandwich, both with Carolina style sauce, cornbread, Fritos and a C-chip cookie. I give it a B+. Lisa's side portions were rather small and if I had ordered those the grade would be lower.
