02-20-2016 Ride

Posted long after this ride, which had me leaving from the parking lot by the Krispy Kreme after driving there in the car.  I headed over Rancho Carmel Dr and Sabre Springs Pkwy to Springhurst Dr and then up to John's place, where I met him and possibly others for a ride.  We took the normal route from his house to the top of Pomerado Rd and then down to Kearny Villa Rd, where we turned left and stayed on it past Clairemont Mesa Blvd to get to Balboa Ave.  Right turn there, eventually turning right onto Morena Blvd, which parallels the freeway.  We rode on it until turning right onto Jutland Dr, which has a couple of sharp little climbs and rollers.  Used Luna Ave to get over to Regents Rd, which we took north until turning right onto Governor Dr.  Then it was over to Genesee Ave, where we turned left and rode up that climb to get to Nobel Dr.  Right turn there, taking it over to Miramar Rd for the relatively flat route back to the base of Pomerado Rd and the climb back up.  I got up to the top of the climb fast enough to do a couple of loops through the neighborhood there before the others joined me.  Then it was back to John's house and to my starting point following the same route I used earlier.

02-15-2016 Ride

Solo ride initially over to the Park & Ride by the mall, riding on the freeway using my old bike.  I was having the rear wheel on my new bike fixed, so I had spent some time the previous day to clean up and lubricate my old one.  I met up with Joe, and we headed back over the freeway and up Pomerado Rd.  I kept a decent pace but didn't push it.  I had experienced soreness in my right calf muscle after returning from Israel, but it had gotten better and I wanted to keep the healing process going.  We rode up to the top of the hill, then turned right onto Cypress Canyon Park Dr, down to Angelique St, and then up to Cypress Canyon Rd.  From there, we rode down to Scripps-Poway Pkwy and over to Springbrook Dr, then down to Poway Rd.  We stopped at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf by Pomerado Rd, had a coffee and a nice conversation, then headed back via Pomerado Rd.  We stayed pretty much together until near the freeway, when I continued past, intending to ride over the pedestrian bridge.  I waited for Joe to catch up, but he thought I was riding home and rode over the freeway.  By the time I got back to the Park & Ride, he was gone, so I rode home.  It was a nice morning for a ride, not too hot.  My legs felt fine at the end, no real soreness or tiredness.

02-06-2016 Ride

Posted long afterwards, so I don't know if anybody rode with me, but I think somebody did, from the places in the map where I appeared to stop and wait.  Headed from home through the neighborhood to RB Rd.  Out to Camino del Sur, which we took to San Dieguito Rd and down Three Witches to El Apajo and Via de Santa Fe.  Then we turned onto Calzada del Bosque and used it to get over to Via de la Valle, where we turned left and rode down to El Camino Real.  A left turn there and then the climb up into Del Mar Heights.  Then we rode down to the 56 bike path and got onto it.  Took it up to the exit for Rancho Santa Fe Farms Rd, using that to get over to Carmel Valley Rd, which we stayed on for the climb up and descent down to get to Dove Canyon Rd.  Back to RB Rd, where we retraced our route back home.

Avg speed = 15.8 mph. Total distance = 32.6 mi

02-04-2016 Run

Run in the morning while staying at the David Intercontinental Hotel in Tel Aviv.  I ran north on the sidewalk by the beach, which is quite flat.  Out a little over 2 miles, then I turned around and ran back.  I was running for most of the time at an easy pace, felt like I slowed down a little at the end.  I think the distance was smaller than MapMyRide actually logged, since I wasn't running 7:30 miles.  It would have been nice to be taking this pace, but I'm not that strong yet.

Total elapsed time = 31:00
Total distance = 4.20 mi

02-02-2016 Run

Run in the morning while staying at the David Hotel in Tel Aviv.  This time, I headed south toward Jaffa, following the sidewalk by the ocean and running through the small marina area.  I kept on going and ended up on the other side, slimbing up a small rise to get to a little over 2 miles.  Then I turned around and basically retraced my steps.  Felt pretty good on the run, putting in about 8 minute miles.

Total elapsed time = 33:40
Total distance = 4.14 mi
