Monday
68° wind 3 NE
I was running so I had to keep it short. I went out to BBD despite the wind direction. I was up to 14.9 mph when I got to SR56. I saw Rose going to work. Why was she going in so early? I lost a little speed on SR56 because of the wind. It was stronger than 3 mph. I finished strong.
7 miles 14.8mph

Tuesday
Bus late. Drove the boys to school and no time to ride before work.

thunderheads far south of us

Wednesday
72° wind 2 SE (felt like SW and stronger)
Tried to ride hard but had some stomach pains.
More construction traffic on WRB. They are extending it to SR54.
LMP blocking bike lane on CLR. I realized they hadn't been blocking me for a few weeks.
10 miles 14mph

Thursday
74° wind 4 SSE (stronger)
Started out well enough. Wind definitely felt stronger. Started coughing on SR56 after I smelled what I thought was fresh cut wood.  I was up to 14.5 when I turned around on WRB. Dusty from dirt haulers. Wind and coughing slowed me down to 14.2 but I pushed into hang on to that.
10 miles 14.2 mph

Friday
74° wind 2 SSW (felt like SSE)
