Happy Easter and all that.
I’ve been getting some good rides in the past few days while I’m nursing my shin splints. I rode to Josh’s place via M-203 on Saturday afternoon.
I swung through McLain Park on my way. It's opening at the end of the month.

Despite the sun being out, it was cold and windy. My toes were frozen by the time I got to Josh's. We had James over for Easter dinner at my house. I made spare ribs, garlic & parmesan mashed potatoes and broccoli. Yummy.

After dinner, we learned that James has a talent for Wii Bowling. Josh came awfully close to beating him, but he crushed me every time.
Only one point!
No matter, watching James try to hula hoop made up for everything. He twirled everything but his hips and looked like he was having a seizure. Holy funny.
So, my schedule this week:
Saturday – 25 miles, 11 mph average
Monday – 20 miles, 13 mph average
Tuesday – no riding, turbo yoga (oh my aching arms - damn those dolphin pushups!)
Wednesday – 21 miles, 12.5 mph average
Thursday – planning for 10-ish miles plus turbo yoga
Friday – supposed to be really nice, maybe I’ll go for a little ride, but maybe not
Saturday – planning for 30-ish miles, but we’ll see
Sunday – turbo yoga
I’ll start running again on Monday and see if my shins appreciate their 10 days of rest. They’d better, the bastards.
