About 32 miles- sunny, warm and humid for Tucson. DH was supposed to ride, changed his mind and decided not to go, then changed it again and came with me. But he was irritable and the first 10 miles was him "expressing his opinion" on a problem that recurs between us every few months. More of a rant than a conversation... But when he is stressed or anxious, exercise helps him get rid of it- and eventually we moved on (wouldn't say there was true resolution).

We rode further than the 20 miles I was thinking about doing today- but as he put it: "a tired dog is a good dog" and he did some extra intervals while I just plugged along at an unimpressive 14 mph overall rate. He took a nap and seems to be considerably calmer and more pleasant tempered now- wagging his tail again.
