because you never know when you're going to get an AWESOME tailwind!!

| WEEEEE!!! |
I was able to go on a 2 1/2 hr. bike ride today, and it was great! I headed out and the wind was noticeable, but not too bad. But, once I got about 40min. into my ride, the wind really started picking up! It got so strong, and at one point I was literally only going 10mph! I was breathing so hard, but I kept on keeping on. Since I started my IMAZ training I have been trying to EMBRACE the wind instead of trying to avoid it. IMAZ is known for being windy on the bike course, so I really need to spend as much time as I can riding in windy conditions. I will be hoping and praying that it won't be too windy, but you just never know what race day will bring. So, in the meantime, BRING IT WIND!!
I rode out for 1:15, then decided to turn around. When I started heading back towards home IT WAS AWESOME!! I was able to average well over 20mph and it was so fun speeding down the trail on my tri bike! The wind made such a big difference heading out that it actually took me 15minutes LESS to cover the same distance. WOOHOO! It was so much fun!

Now, the bike is put away, and I'm sitting here relaxing in my compression tights as I type! Life is good!

| Ahhh...I LOVE these! |
I hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend!!
