Another fraction of the week, another fraction of life justly spent, even if ambition makes for regret (on this blog there is none)

Tues, June 29: biked 4 or 5 miles to the library, studied, then biked back. biked 8-10 miles total. Was super-tired! Walked bike halfway up both of the two hills, legs were so exhausted from these past few days. Decided legs were desperate for rest, so took off rest of day.
Wed, June 30: Went biking with Kallen. Super-fun! Biked to her house, then we took Scholls to downtown Portland(!!!) and saw people setting up for the Blues Festival at the Waterfront. Crossed the river and took our bikes for a walk (leisurely pedaling) down the East Bank Esplanade and then that other path which starts at the end of that, and took it to (Grand Oaks?) some amusement park. Then retraced our steps, crossed back to the west side of the river and found a max station (Chinatown?). Without knowing the actual route, I'd guess 13 miles to Waterfront, then 8 miles round trip on the Esplanade/ bike path. Perhaps 21 total?
Thurs, Jul 1: Ran wildwood in the AM with Emily and Joey. Ran primarily with Joey. Malia walked with Ili and Leon. We got to Pittock mansion (almost 4) then turned around (I paused only once up the terrifying hills-- and only briefly, I think; I'm quite proud of my self), and shortly after the 2 mile mark ran into the walkers. Walked the last 2 miles with them as a pleasant cooldown. Worked really well-- my legs weren't sore at all later! So ran 6 miles, and walked 2.
Friday: I'm going to do a short ride with Kallen to go watch the bike track races at the velodrome later today. I hope to run 5 miles or so before then.
