Another healthy year wrapped up

 Grateful at my age I can still set and achieve new annual mileage PR's in my triathlon training. In '21 I inched past my swim goal to 214,000 yards, and most grateful of the categories - running, at 1,066 miles. I started off the new year with a good 36 mile ride. What with CoVid the past 2 years, my commuting miles went to zero, and my cycling totals drooped alarmingly. This year we are (were?) supposed to be back to full normal on-campus classes, and too - I've signed up for the Mammoth Gran Fondo as part of the GraniteMan Challenge, and also the Solvang Century with the Wyman's. I need to get into cycling shape. I rode up the coast past Davenport and the Swanton Valley loop. Still badly scarred by the fires, alas, but at least grasses are growing there, even if the trees are mostly dead and the cabins and homes gone.May be an image of 2 people, bicycle and outdoors
