I get my leg ultra sounded on Thursday, we'll see how much of that clot remains at that time. My doc today said
it can take several months for a leg like mine to act normal again. Oh well. Doesn't hurt.
Here too. According to the local weather teams here, the heat index got up to 121F today. Tuesday is our normal hill repeats day, but since our usual road is under construction we decided to do a 25-mile group ride with several short but steep hills. I had some serious issues with sweat dripping into my eyes and I could tell that I wore out more quickly than the same ride in 80 degree heat, but overall, it wasn't as bad as I expected.

Tomorrow night will be a different story. ~50 miles depending on route with temps every bit as high as today with an earlier ride start. Wednesday evening is the hardest ride in the area and should be pretty epic.
