Since Thursday the rides have gotten longer and keep getting better. Riding Hall Ranch is always awesome! That rock garden I just can't get enough of. Then afterwards making a stop at the Barking Dog Cafe in Lyons before heading home - it just fits perfect. I love Lyons, its such a cool little town! More tennis and even golf has come into the picture out here! Saturday's workout included a long steep rocky hike with Dad up a mountain in Rocky Mountain National park gaining 2200+ feet in 4.5 miles!
Sunday was a 70+ mile ride (~4hrs) from Boulder to Lyons to Allenspark and then back the same route...today was over 3 1/2 hours followed by a good 1hr 45min session of tennis with a new crosstrain partner. With all of this activity though, I've had to keep a close eye on refueling and hydration. So far so good...but its easy to lose track! Burning 5000+ calories per day sometimes can be hard to keep up with. Breakfast has become much more important and is finally becoming a regular daily occurrence (which I know it should be anyway) - beginning with a tall glass of water first thing after rolling out of bed.

Dude, you better stop all that riding. You're gonna be too tough at Natl's.
We missed you out there at Kato last weekend but I doubt you missed riding on the small mound we call a "ski hill".
