California

Went down to Poway California for ten day to get some good warm weather training in before school starts again. On the first day through down a 3 hour ride in 4c temp, so warmer than Canada but not a huge change. It got a lot warmer as the day went on.

On the second day was doing an easy run and found the biggest puddle. I processed to face plant into that puddle making a muddy mess of myself but all was fine and finished up the run dirty but uninjured.
By the third day had settled into and was ready for some good training. Here is how the week looked.

All I had in my Pockets for the 4 hour Ride
 The 4 hour ride started cold but got hot very quickly so I had to put some cloths in my empty water bottle to hold it all in my pockets.
