11/20/10 Tri Training: Bike/Run...

The tri team also had practice at Edgewood/Canada so it was nice to be able to carpool with Harold to practice. It wasn't raining when we got there but then it started to lightly sprinkle. Since this was the first official bike training, we had a meeting to discuss bike safety. During the meeting, it started to rain harder so Coach Mike gave everyone the option to bike or run.

Many folks still opted to bike and mentioned that they would run after, so I joined them. I'm not very comfortable in the rain so I took it slow. The rain didn't let up so we got very wet and it was pretty cold. I couldn't feel my fingertips or my toes and I was having a hard time seeing where I was going. I didn't feel safe at all! I finished the 8 mile loop and decided to call it a day, mainly because I couldn't see and I was shivering. The run will have to wait another day.
