quick update

Got out for a 21 mile training run this morning after eating far too much and doing far too little on Fathers Day. It is getting to the point where I actually miss riding...which I suppose is a good thing if I'm going to be on a bike for over a month.

Talked with dad yesterday (it was Father's day after all) and it sounds like his training is starting to pick up. He was even planning to go for a ride after we talked..think he wants to leave me in the dust again;)

My kids got me a new bike light set for Father's Day - a nice flashing LED set that hopefully will help keep me visible on the Blue Ridge Trail.

Don't think I mentioned that the new sunglasses I purchased broke. I went to put them on Saturday morning and they simply snapped in half. I bought them from Nashbar (online) along with several other things, and had been really happy with them, especially since they were only $10. Missing them on this morning's ride I called Nashbar and their customer service was great. They checked with their technical team, determined I probably just got a defective pair, and agreed to send me a new pair...very nice!
