I did my run pretty hard on Wednesday, so on Thursday I just did my upper body strength training. I followed that with a short easy local cruise in my reclined position which helped my legs recover.

I signed up again this month for Strava's metric century challenge, which I decided to cancel on Friday. But I was too ambitious because I left without having breakfast and I didn't bring energy bars. I felt pretty good until I got over 45 miles, then I started to drag, so I headed home, not quite making it 50 miles, a little short of my goal of 100 km (62 miles). Note to self: it's not a good idea to do 100km rides without eating! I'll try again later this month, making sure to eat breakfast and bring snacks. This turned out to be a pretty good route that I will probably use again in the future. It's great for an early start on a weekday because it avoids busy routes during rush hour and is nice and scenic.
