Got in some running intervals (3x 4min Z4 + 2min rest) going back and forth next to Uvas Reservoir with CEO.

Strength training today was Core I – for my next go I’d like to mix up the exercises a bit more using some from the back of Friel’s Cyclists Training Bible

Coming up in the fall month of October I’ll participate in two gravel rides (better late to the scene than never):

…

Caitria and I’ll be competing in the Mt. Madonna Challenge 10K on Sept 23rd, eight days out.

While I haven’t planned a taper before and am late to the game, here’s a schedule:

• Fri (today): rest
• Sat: intervals (3x 4min Z4 + 2min rest on Calero Hills)
• Sun: ren faire walking, leg lifts?
• Mon: intervals
• Tue: Z2 cruise
• Wed: intervals if feeling good
• Thu: rest
• Fri: light intervals
• Sat: Race!

The first day from Seattle to Longview / Kelso was a 150mi and set a new PR for distance cycled in a day, on top of the 200mi in two days.

Hiking in the Whites

I’ve been hiking in the Whites out of N. Conway with CEO and Fam the last week:

• Mount Jackson (bagged a presi, 2000ft over 2.7mi and Curie came too)
• Georgianna Falls (long scramble along a waterfall, Curie still came)
• Diana’s Baths (quick ’n easy – we were stuck in the rain)

Opened PR with the chatgpt-shell multi src blocks

I opened a rough draft of the PR to support multiple chatgpt-shell org-babel contexts (#121). It’ll be a great upgrade to the library, my chatgpt workflows, and, it turns out, my elisp fundamentals.
