TOTAL MILEAGE FOR 2016: 1824.4
This morning I had planned to ride 50 miles, like last weekend, in accordance with the training schedule I've planned to build my stamina for an attempted 100-mile day this fall. Because we have noon lunch plans with friends, I wanted to get an early start and leave myself plenty of time, so I left at 4:30, riding the first one and a half round trips to Marsh Park before sunrise, and all was going splendidly. But between 8:00 and 8:30, heavy cloud cover moved in, and rain seemed imminent—so, reluctantly, I cut it short and did only 4 round trips (rather than the planned six), completing the 34 miles in 3:55.
The day did at least allow me to attain a new milestone, however, going over 1800 miles for the year.
