Cycling
The Hillsboro Roubaix road race was at the the beginning of the month. Aside from that I took it pretty easy on the bike last month, only doing four hard rides. I'm a good 500 miles behind where I was at this time last year. I can think of at least two reasons for that...
April 2009

Running
The Illinois marathon came and went. My running mileage was down a bit in April due to the pre-marathon taper and the post-marathon recovery. Looking at these numbers, even I'm fairly impressed that my average run length this year is 10 miles. Compared to this time last year, I'm 135 miles ahead. That's one of the reasons my cycling mileage is down.
Anyway, I've decided that I want to try to run another marathon this spring. I'm just not happy with the race I ran at the Illinois marathon. I can do better. I'm leaning towards the Rockford marathon on May 17.

Swimming
I even cut back on the swimming around the marathon, but I'm back at it now. My first triathlon of the season (Tri the Illini) is this Saturday on campus.

I'm afraid Brett and I might have searched for #2 often and always ended up with your blog.
