Did a hair over 19 miles early this morning, as my son was coming over to go swimming.
We did the "flat" route in the opposite direction, which is a little longer than the normal way we do it because of a one way street. My DH pushed me relentlessly and I felt it. I was able to stay behind him, save for a couple of times when he sprinted up little rollers. I just can't do that; I feel so much more comfortable spinning. But, I was able to go up these little climbs at a faster pace. Before we started up the hill for the final big climb, my average was 17.8 and 16.4 when I got to my house. I don't usually like to report my speed, but this was a first for me.
I was exhausted when we got back, but we had a nice picnic at the pond with our son. I think it's the first time I've seen him without his girlfriend being there in a year.
