37 miles today…

Well…when I started out this morning, I thought it might be a really short, one ride day with the big running race going on today…I did get the first ride in leaving here at 6:30 am but then the race started as I was just getting back…there were almost 1,000 people getting ready downtown so I came back here to wait it out…but I got to around 11:30 and I realized I could just go east instead of west so I got on the bike and headed out…rode all the way to the eastern end of Muskegon Lake and kept going so I could look at Muskegon from the north side…that was about a 12 mile round trip to get back here…and I had completely forgotten about the 2 mile long boardwalk that goes over a couple of rivers and through a swamp so that was cool to ride on again…and when I got back to the park, the runners were gone so I decided to just keep riding and do another normal 12.5 mile lap…so it was a 37 mile day today and it felt good to stretch a bit and do some extra work…and I even had time to finish the book I started yesterday…this small town was just buzzing with activity all day…starting with the running race, then the craft fair downtown, the boat ramps were full, and there were no parking spots out at my beach…probably busier than I’ve seen…so that was cool…now it’s time to start another book…
