Woke up at 5am to the pounding of rain. Started the morning off pretty late and slow. Ate breakfast in Wisp and did some reading to pass the time. I walked outside at noonish and it was actually sunny. Decided to go on a road bike ride.

Got all of my stuff together and then tried to pump up my tires but something was not working with the pump so I rode it over to Wisp Adventure Center where Clark let be borrow their pump. Talked to him a bit about planning for 24 hour races.  I then went back to the RV 1  (Took out the A and decided that it was only for 1 not 4), got all of my stuff together and left for my ride.

I headed up Overlook to Oakland Sang Run and then took that to Garrett State Forest.  I was a little hesitant going over the bridge but it was no problem. Rode around Herrington Manor SP and then headed toward Oakland.  As soon as I left Herrington it started to drizzle.  Then it down-poured. I could barely see, but I kept going. Made it to Oakland and the rain let up a little bit. I was thinking of going into either Wally or Lowe’s to try to wait out the rain but it stopped right before I got to Wally.  The roads were still drenched but I kept moving to stay somewhat warm. I rode up 219 until Kings Run Rd which I then proceeded on the ride which I did with Scott R on Thursday night. I finally got back to wisp around 5pm and proceeded to eat a bunch of whatever I had in the car. (peanut butter and jelly, crackers, peanut butter cookies, cereal, chef boyardee, etc)

The rest of the evening I relaxed back in the fitness center. At 9:30ish I left there and my stomach was aching for some different food. Drove down to Wally and bought some bananas, apples, strawberries, dried pineapples, and a sip of OJ. Parked in the far corner of the lot to go to bed.
