    B: turkey breast slices (4) over a tomato with melted low fat Colby cheese, an orange, coffee
    S: slice of Ezekial bread with low fat cream cheese
    we did a 2.2 mile hike that was about 460 feet of pretty steep climbing. About half of it was on a road that made me think "I wonder if I could ride up this...?" We saw one rider coming down. WE were rewarded with a view of the city from the top of this former ski area, now a city park in a small city outside of Boston.
    L: pulled chicken sandwich and cole slaw, one beer
    D: spaghetti squash with marinara, shitake mushrooms, summer squash, salad
    2 squares dark chocolate

    Back to normal tomorrow!

    B: steel-cut oats with PB, non-fat Greek yogurt, skim milk, coffee.
    1 hour easy mtb ride
    S: Power Bar
    Murphy CrossFit workout with a warmup significant enough that could have been considered a separate workout
    S: 3 grilled chicken tenderloins, 1 ounce fruit smoothie
    D: Cookout with grilled chicken, a salad and....a hamburger with tomato, lettuce, mustard, bun. Too much but it was all good and I was hungry.

    I did 105 miles today in the searing hot sun with a 30 mph headwind 2/3 of the time (ugh and I was riding north 30 miles before the winds picked up so no benefit of tailwind either). It might have been more tolerable had I had someone to commiserate with, but alas. I'm feeling pretty good right now!

    I started my day with a giant bowl of oats with apricots and almonds

    On the ride:
    4 bottles accelerade
    1 snack pack of fig newtons
    1 bag of kettle cooked salt & vinegar chips
    2 clif mojo bars
    1 Orange gatorade (I would have done anything for a cold drink by mile 90)

    Immediately post ride:
    big bottle of nesquik and some salt & vinegar chips while I sat in the ice bath DBF prepared for me
    A banana

    Dinner:
    the most heavenly 'deep dish' pizza with fresh handmade tomato sauce, roast chicken, roasted garlic, and roasted red peppers. It's from a place in St. Louis/D.C. called Pi. Their deep dish has this crispy corn meal crust that is just to die for. Carbtastic but not junky at all. I ate half of a 12" pizza. I figured that was going to be better than the massive milkshake I was thinking about having for dessert.
