Geesh, the temp here should be 50 degrees. The last two nights I have had to wear 8 shirts and multiple layers to go outside to get my workouts done. Sick. I took a photo of our fancy thermostat when I got home - 29 degrees on my back porch (see quality cell phone pic). Just a few more days of workouts and my final cross race of the season - Lane Road Park - which is about a 20 min bike ride from my house. Sweet. I was trying to figure out tonight, while riding home: how best to warm up for the race sunday. Should I hit the trainer here, then ride over? or should I go with Jen's idea to take the trainer, set up the pop up tent with some sides on it, and warm up inside our 'booth'. Hmmm.
Tonight - I did some good sprints tonight to open up the engine some, felt way way better after a few of those. But, on the way out for my workout -I was not feeling it on the start of my ride, with about a 15 mph headwind all the way out to the beginning of my workouts.
