Hi! This Tuesday and the rest of the Tuesdays in May, I will be doing a brick workout starting at Jackson Elementary school in Freeman Field at 5:00pm.  "Brick" is triathlon jargon for a training session that is made up of a bike ride followed immediately by a run.  I think the expression comes from the idea that your legs will probably feel like bricks at the start of the run.  But anywho...for the ride portion of the brick, I plan on doing relatively short routes at a "smart" pace (seeing as I have to run afterwards and all)..  The first route I've chosen is about 15 miles and mostly flat.  It will be followed by a run of 2 to 3 miles on the path down to the soccer complex.  The run portion is optional, so if you're looking for a chance to do some shorter group rides but don't want to run, please come along. Hope to have some company on Tuesday!!  Take care, Liz
