Total mileage for 2017: 104.9
The snow that had been forecast for today never arrived. Still, though, the riding conditions were decidedly unpleasant, leaving me highly grateful that I was able to work in a ride at all. I rode in an intermittent light 38° sprinkle—but the worst of it was the significant wind (16 mph from the west), and when I wasn't riding directly into it, as I was for much of my ride back from the park, it lowered the wind-chill to 28° and flung the raindrops, stinging, into my face. Given all this, I decided to settle for a single round trip to Marsh Park today, grinding out the 10 miles in 1:14.
In order to make my goal of 4000 miles for this year, I'll have to average 11.46 miles per day for the remaining 339 days. This figure, however, will be much easier to meet, and usually to exceed (gradually bringing the daily needed average down) once the spring and summer days arrive.
