Carol: Wednesday, March 7.  Left home around one o'clock. I wanted to leave earlier, however, intestinal issues caused a later start.  Started my ride at Sammish Island and rode to Farm House Inn before turning around and starting back.  Trying to increase my miles I took a detour back.  The roads are rough in that area which caused my mph to decrease.  The weather was beautiful with nothing but blue skies and thousands of waterfowl.  At one point I stood by my bike under a tree with a bald eagle right over my head.  Amazing: )

Training notes:
22.2 miles, average speed was 15mph
First two miles my legs felt tired and I couldn't find my pace
rest of ride felt great and I actually took an extra spin up the rode
