The girls are so sweet! They brightened up our day!
We headed out to tackle the Lakeview Trails. Spot, my SS, and I again teamed up to have a pretty good, consistent ride.
The trails had lots of traffic as compared to a normal day. It was a lovely biking day. We figured the increased traffic was due to the recent announcement of a 50 miler coming up in February at the Park. We're sure things will get busier with bikers training after the first of the year.
Dynamo signed up for the race too, so our training has already begun. Saturday, the plan was to do 20 miles. All went well for me until the end of Lakeview 3. I started to feel funny. At first I thought it was my nutrition, so I ate a little something. I thought I was "bonking" as they say. By the time we got to the trailhead I told the guys to go ahead and finish the last 7 without me. I headed back to the car and waited.
I took my time heading back and snapped a couple of pics.
The sunshine was lovely. The water was so pretty.
I got back to the car and tried to warm up. The temperature was quickly dropping. The guys arrived having completed the 20 mile goal for the day. Unfortunately, sometimes things don't work out as planned. Next time I'll make it happen!
For the 13 miles Spot and I completed, we had a great average. I was very consistent. I'll take that.

When that happens to me, I always say, 'that ride/run was a bust-oh well'. There are so many good days that I don't let it bother me. Sometimes your body says 'wait a minute, I am not up for that today.' I hope you are feeling strong during your next outing.
Great pictures as usual.
