Finally made it back to strongman training yesterday. It was log press and yoke day, which are two that I'm actually able to do fairly well. Was there for 1.5 hours, and while log went about as planned, I actually did better than expected with the yoke (won't go into details unless someone wants to know).
After that, I cam home, got some breakfast (woke up too late for that, just had coffee before training) and then rode out to pick up more coffee. Sat & had a cup in-house & visited with the owners fora bit, then stopped at a roadside produce stand for fresh blueberries. A little pricey, but I'd rather support them that the big chain grocers.
Went to the Well for lunch. They didn't have the item I wanted on the menu anymore, so I went with a new style of pizza they had on offer. Was ok, but not the best. To quote their menu, "sweet chili sauce base, kimchi, red onion, jalapeno, chihuahua and mozzarella" with meat options - I went with chicken. I've never had kimchi before, and noticed the allergy warning that said "***Kimchi contains anchovy and shellfish***". I wondered if I'd notice, as I can be a bit sensitive to flavors, and yeah, I noticed. Maybe next time I'll get it without the kimchi?
After that, I was in the mood for a ride, so I headed out. No plan, just rode where I felt like. Between a couple of stops (one to sit on the pier at SH) and the meandering ride, I think I was out for 4-5 hrs yesterday. Not the smartest thing to do after a heavy training session, but it did feel good to be out. It was relatively cool too, which was nice. High 70s-low 80s most of the afternoon, but on the ride home, I hit a pocket of cool air that got down to 68-69F. I had to turn on my heated seat & grips, because that's just too cold for only a t-shirt & jeans @ 55-60 mph.
Slept fairly well last night, but very little deep sleep, and I'm pretty sore all over today. Fortunately I have no plans, so I'll just make sure to have some good meals, get my grocery shopping done, and cook for the rest of the week.
