Did a afterwork bike ride before friends came over for a BBQ. I tried sockless and felt wicked fast without socks. Last time I raced without socks I did not do well. (socks cost you a lot of time in transition, so fast people do not do socks.) It felt pretty good, but I could sure smell stinky feet when I got done. I have been trying to go bare foot more to toughen up my feet. I hate going bare foot. But I will see how things go and decide later whether to go sockless at spudman.
I biked around copes, the golf course and down the riverbottoms and up the hill and finished on my 10K route. Hit 23 mph for a decent part of it.
I lifted in the morning. I have been really excited for the Tour de France to start and saw the prerace. I have been taping some of the endings for a dreary winter day on the indoor trainer.
