Mixture of trails and dirt roads mostly. Lot of people out just congregating in middle of the pathways. Weather quite fallish but nice.

AM/Lunch: 7.5 miles, averaged 8:40. HR 159.

Decided to do a mini workout. Was thinking 4-5 miles moderate to uptempo but got a bit too fast and I have zero stamina at this point, so I just did 2 miles (7:37, 7:15), 1 mile easy, 1 mile harder (6:52). That's my first sub-7 mile in quite some time. Likely need to do aerobic workouts with the HRM on as I have no sense of pacing or effort currently.

PM: 4.2 miles, averaged 11:50. HR 132.

Solo PM miles. Megan's back was bothering her and she wouldn'y have wanted to run that slow.

PM: 2 hours (27.2 miles) on the fat bike. HR 156.

Did a few laps a Orion Oaks before doing some of the dirt roads. One hot lap after a warmup. Muddy in a few spots and I had to slow to a crawl to not blast a pedestrian with mud.

Cold and dark, but the leaves were nice. Rode through horse country in Oxford and Metamora.
