Good Day of Training

As long as the weather is crappy there is a standing time on Sunday for trainer rides. They are typically longer and you just never know what it will be or who is coming (well except the usual nutz - Goose, Egg and me). Today it looked like TKO and Red Dog were heading to Tipp also. Got an email from TKO that his daughter was sick and needed to stay home. Mad Dog left a message last night that he was definitely in.

Saturday Jeff ran with Mark and they got in about 9 1/2 miles of trail running. Jeff said his legs felt "OK" for the miles he ran yesterday.

After the good ride Egg had outside with Rick, Tim, Vince and Todd I had sent him a tweet about adding the Prologue and Super Spins at the end of No Slackers to the end of Dropping The Hammer - he was in - we just think Goose needed to know ahead of time.

We warmed up to Lance TDF for a few minutes and then it was time to get down to business. There were a few times that Egg was the only one able to talk - so he talked, cheered and coached us. That hour went by very quickly - everyone was working hard. I put in the second DVD - Goose knew we were doing the Prologue but didn't listen to everything we said, so he went all out and thought he was done - nope he had a little more to go - the look on his face was priceless! For the cool down he got off a little early - so he had to ride a little extra for his penalty time.

After the ride we chatted for a couple of minutes and everyone headed home. Another excellent training day in the books. Thanks Egg for the coaching - Mark glad you were able to make it ------ Now next Sunday - is another run of Tough Love ---- hmmm who will show up (well beside Egg, Goose and I)?
