6.15.12 Spinning... and then Running

The Workout: 2 hours of MI spinning... and then an impromptu run at the end.

I hadn't planned on running today, and I know my workouts have strayed from the original plan as laid out last week, but I've had to modify the schedule a little bit.  Even so, I've had a great week of training.

We're leaving tomorrow for Colorado and we'll be traveling most of Saturday and Sunday.  Since Sunday was scheduled to be my long day and we'd be on the road, I figured it wasn't going to happen.  So, I decided to do it today.  I didn't have a set time in mind.  I just wanted to spin for a while.  Before I knew it 2 hours went by and I was still feeling great.  Good enough to feel motivated to head out for a run.  The weather was on the verge of stormy, so it was somewhat overcast and there were nice cool gusts of wind... who could resist?

I felt awesome for having just spent 2 hours on the bike.  The momentum was lost right after mile 3 when I got stopped at a stoplight.  I tried to get the motor running again, but it just said no way.  I was content.  It was a great effort at the end of a long workout.

Run info is below...
