July Critical Mass San Diego

Damien and I biked along with Critical Mass San Diego again last Friday. This was my third outing and Damien’s second. This was a large Mass. My guess is that there were 1,000 cyclists the route took us just over 30 miles. Our route:

I’m often asked the same questions about Critical Mass. Who determines the route? Is there a prescribed route? Whoever is in the front determines the route and no there is not a prescribed route. In fact, this last Critical Mass Damien and I led it for the last eight miles out of Pacific Beach and up to Mission Hills. We were ready to go home. :-)

12.5 Miles Run, 11 Miles Biked

Kind of a slow running week. I over did my runs early on in the week and I‘ve had problems with my left calf and achilles tendon for most of this week. So, I took it easy on my feet and used my bike more than usual.

I ran 7 miles today. My pace time was 9:36 minute miles. Euh, not exactly what I had hoped for, but given my lack of running this week I’m ok with the performance. It was a nice run that circumvented Coranado. It rained off and on the entire time, which felt great.  My training this week:

UPDATE: Tara brought to my attention she did this run with WC Roadrunners (same running club), but pushed Ashby in the stroller the whole distance. She did it in about 10 minutes longer time. Wow.
