Just under 26 miles (25.83) in 1:37:00 - bike watch doesn't have seconds. Tough as it was VERY hot but it was good to get in a long ride on the road. Course was hilly and next time I want to bring a Gatorade as well as water .
Course is here.

Swim 110729
Warm up:
50/100/200
3x750 yards
Total: 2600 Yards
Good swim, again took until the 200 yard set of my warm up to shake the sleep out of my body. I didn't keep exact time as I was more focused on just working on increasing my distance. I would say the times were <15min, 15:30, and 16 min. I didn't feel like I was any slower but I was swimming about 5 secs per lap slower. I was in the end lane versus my typical middle lane.

2250 total yards or a little over 1.25 miles.Between getting adjusted to the morning and warming up, the first three sets were tough. But then I was able to get into my old rhythm of 1 Min/50yards and then it was just a matter of counting laps. The ladder was a good way to get back in to it. My next swim session will be longer sets.

Adirondack Vacation
Just got back from a great vacation in Old Forge and Lake Placid. My dad and I took the kids up to the High Peaks region and climbed Cascade and Porter mountains. The kids and I then met Carrie in Old Forge for a week with her family.
Spending the week driving up and down the Fulton Chain as we visited the ADK Museum in Blue Mountain, Hoss's in Long Lake, a day at Buttermilk Falls, and two days boating on First through Fourth lakes I was reminded how much I miss doing the Adirondack Canoe Classic. I will hopefully be able to fit it in next year.
