After my morning nap, I did a P1 Sprints bike workout. Warmed-up, then 6x30 sprints in big gears. I stood for the first 10 seconds while increasing cadence to 90-100, then kept cadence for 20 seconds while seated.
When I was heading back on Blackberry Hill Rd., I saw a mother and a son up the road. I looked behind me to see if a car was coming and there was, but when I started to look ahead, I drove onto the shoulder. I stopped pedaling and held on for the ride. As soon as the car passed, I got back on the road. Phew!
It was a great workout, minus the headwinds.

Todays Time Trail
After my morning nap, I did a T2 bike Time Trail. 15 minute warm-up on trainer and then a 10k TT. Its suppose to be done on a flat course but I enjoy the hills. The 5k out was easier than the 5k back.
When I returned, there was a headwind. After I took a right to go up Berwick Hill, a tractor trailer was following (pushing) behind me, but wouldn't pass. Towards the top of the hill, he passed.
It was an excellent ride and a good workout. This is the last week of my Build 1 traithlon training.
I ended with a strawberry/blueberry smoothie
