Solo ride in the afternoon while staying up at Camp Cedar Glen. It was a nice day for temperature, but it was a little breezy. Generally, that wasn't much of a problem. Headed over into downtown Julian, then I took the 79 out toward Lake Cuyamaca and beyond, stopping at the entrance to Paso Picacho Campground and turning around there. I really enjoyed the long gradual downhill stretch back into Julian. On the way back, I rode to the end of Farmers Rd which is about half a mile beyond the entrance to the camp. That little climb into camp is a killer, not long but really steep at the start.

Time trial ride in the morning with Jim, where I tried at times to keep a strong pace and generally succeeded, at least at my current fitness level. Finished in about 1:03:15.

Total elevation gain = 1090'

Later in the day, Ann and I took our beach cruisers over to east Oceanside and rode on the San Luis Rey River trail. The trail is well paved and maintained, but there is not a whole lot to see. We rode generally into the wind on the way out, so the way back was easier, which was good, because Ann got tired and sore toward the end. After the ride, we went to Mother Earth Brewery in Vista and had some beer and a pizza.
Total distance = 10.1 mi
Total elevation gain = 160'

09-17-2016 Ride
Ride up Azucar Way to Jim's house, where I met up with him and Dave. It was kinda chilly at the start, but it turned out to be great riding weather. We headed over W Bernardo Dr to RB Rd and then up to Pomerado Rd. Out to Highland Valley Rd and over the flats to the climb, which was a challenge for my legs. I made it up slowly, and then we rode over to Bandy Canyon Rd and down into the San Pasqual Valley. The others were ridng a little further back, so I did a combination of slowing my pace down and waiting at points for them. We rode over to the 78, then headed back toward Escondido, riding to Cloverfield Rd and taking this road north for about a mile and a half to view the scenery. Then it was back to San Pasqual Rd and out of the valley this way. This road is pretty beat up, and there was a fair amount of traffic on it, so not the best stretch of road on the day. Over to BVP and home the normal way, with the exception of staying on W Bernardo Rd up to Duenda Rd to avoid the steeper route via Aguamiel Rd. My legs felt surprisingly good, no soreness at all and just a little tiredness.

09-15-2016 Ride
Solo ride from home after work. I hadn't ridden my road bike for a couple of weeks, since I had been in Israel over two weekends. I took it easy and chose a relatively flat route. Headed out by the park and over to Highland Valley Rd, taking it up to the first part of the climb and turning around at about 5 miles. The ride back was a little harder, since it was into a minor headwind. To Pomerado Rd and turning left to ride up to RB Rd. From there, it was back home the normal way. It felt good to get back on the bike, but I have a long way to go to get back into cycling shape.
Avg speed = 17.3 mph. Total mileage = 13.1 mi
Avg heartrate = 140 bpm
Total elevation gain = 780'

09-05-2016 Run
Posted long afterwards. Another run in the evening while staying at the David in Tel Aviv. This time, I ran north on the Tayelet, past the marina but not all the way to the port, before turning around and retracing my route back to the hotel. I ran a fairly relaxed pace this time.
Total distance = 3.98 mi
Elapsed time = 36:57

09-03-2016 Run
Posted long afterwards. From the route, this looks like a nighttime run while staying at the David in Tel Aviv. I ran over to the Tayelet and then started heading toward Jaffa, running down to the port area and around the restaurants before turning around and heading back the same way, until I came to the base of Charles Clore Park and ran along Kaufmann St. Probably helped me to sleep better that night.
Total distance = 3.22 mi
Elapsed time = 27:29
