No kidding! We did go out and do
it again on Monday, Memorial Day!
The morning was beautiful, but the pond was cold, cold, cold! We completed the swim with much chattering of
teeth, then jumped on our bikes. I put
on a sleeveless jersey, then a light windbreaker since it was still a little
cool. So, no need for sunblock...
We made it about 5 miles or so into our ride and came to a
roadblock. The Exergy Tour was in town
and all the phenomenal women cyclists were riding toward us on the road we
intended to take. We had to wait about
20 minutes, but it was awesome to see the pelaton fly by us! I got a little toasty waiting to proceed with
our ride and took off the aforementioned windbreaker. This will be important information later.
Once we got the ok to go on, we headed out to our turn around point,
then came on back. Once again we were
held up briefly by the cyclists since they were completing 3 loops along our
route.
Finally, we returned to the car and prepared to run. At this point I finally put on some sunblock. Can you see where this is heading?
After running, we spent some time downtown enjoying the beautiful day, good Boise food and people watching. Once we got home and washed off the pond and
road grime, we discovered that I had become a superhero. One of the X-Men.
Ouch…
