fat burning = low_intensity + long_distance - food

I took it slow and did a longer ride to work off a little extra baggage on the torso region. I loved the weather today! It was sunny but cool (around 70°)--I really didn't sweat at all.

I haven't rode this far on the Burke in a while, so this was a refresher on how bumpy the trail is on the Seattle side. The 2-3 construction zones I passed were also annoying. My front tire slipped on some sand while turning right at a detour and I nearly fell. It was a good thing that my left shoulder locked and my right foot came unclipped from its pedal, otherwise the bike would have slipped out from under me. [1]

[1] Of course, my left shoulder nearly broke out of its socket and my right pedal slammed into my right calf in the process leaving a nice welt :-|.

Cool and breezy today, with wind coming from the north at 7mph--it was killing me on the way out.

Hot day (mid to upper 80s) and feeling a bit fatigued.
