Starting to sleep more normally, meaning that I get up in the night but can get back to sleep. I woke up really early early and had some cereal and a banana, then went back to bed, waking up later (<>). I went for a ride on my Fuji, with the aero bars, in the early morning, to get more comfortable riding with my arms on the aero bar drops. Down by the park and then up Pomerado Rd to Poway Rd, turning around there and riding back to RB Rd. Home via W Bernardo Dr. At times, it felt like I was in a good rhythm when riding in aero position, but I didn't have the endurance to keep pushing hard for longer periods of time. More practice riding needed. For some reason, my heartrate monitor didn't sync with my Wahoo on this ride.
Avg speed = 18.5 mph. Total mileage = 16.6 mi
Avg power = 158 W. Weighted avg power = 179 W
Total elevation gain = 780'

Intensity = 81%
Ate a second breakfast when I got home, along with a cup of coffee. Then I drove over to the Pomerado Hospital complex in Escondido and got a flu shot. Stopped at Home Depot on the way back and bought some lengths of 1" PVC pipe, thinking I might need to replace some of the posts holding up the shade cover in the garden after Ann said they were falling down. When I got home, I went out back and saw that just one of the poles had leaned over, nothing broken, so I adjusted it and the shade cover back to normal, will continue monitoring. It's been about a month since any of the posts broke, so perhaps everything is stable enough. Watched some TV in the afternoon, and Ann bought us tickets to see Ed Sheeran in 2026 at Petco Park. Had pizza with dough that we had made together a couple of days previously, the crust was disappointing. I guess we need more practice. After dinner, Ann went to church, and I went for a run at the park. Rode my scooter down there, it was pretty busy with youth athletics, but I found a parking spot. The temperature had cooled, but it was still really humid, and I was sweating pretty heavily throughout the run. Kept my pace a little lower and ran for four miles, had to talk myself into running the last mile, which was the fastest one. Felt okay, it's always difficult for me to run after eating, I feel weighed down. But I need the miles.
Avg pace = 8:15/mi
Total distance = 4.05 mi

The rest of the evening was quiet. I had a shower and read for a bit.
