Rest day

Was very tired yesterday after a hot bike ride in the hills. The short night of sleep before the race on Saturday was catching up with me.

Even so, it was hard today to not do anything. Maybe I could go to the pool and try out my H2Ofriendly kit. It can wait a day.

So instead there was browsing of new gear on the web and a drive over to Sports Basement to check stuff out. Picked up a race number belt, a few new water bottles for the bike, a few packets of HEED to test out, and a Brooks technical cap. Thought about getting a visor but this hat is very light, and my hair is super short (and or thinning to the point of gone) so a little extra protection seemed like a good idea. Plus those in the know say you can put ice under a cap which you can't do with a visor.
