70.5 miles to Long Beach
with an extra lap around Prospect Park, and some bonus Manhattan miles, to pass the 70 mile mark!
It was a warm, warm day. I reached the beach in record time, and bought a pass for ten visits - more than I'll use this summer. So if anyone wants to join me at the beach, let me know!
On the beach, I munched on a delicious sandwich - muenster cheese on a garlic bagel, with mustard, lettuce, tomato and onion, of course - a sour pickle, a diet caffeine free soda, and an enormous bottle of water.
Then it was into the ocean for a refreshing swim! No swimming took place, but some battles with the waves did. The beach and the water were packed, and fun was had by all.
At home, I consumed giant quantities of Diet Sunkist and water. I think Diet Sunkist is so appealing after a bike ride because the dehydration leaves your mouth tasting salty, triggering the memory of that delicious drink. Diet Sunkist is simultaneously salty and sweet - if that's not special, I'm not sure what is. Before the drink-fest I weighed myself on the new bodyfat scale and found that I had lost about nine pounds of fat since the morning! Of course, an error due to the dehydration.
Then P joined us for a very tasty dinner at Le Zie. I had Macaroni and Cheese but was otherwise good, with salad and later, fruit for dessert. Then K and I played ping pong at Fat Cat, on Christopher, which is a game room cum bar cum jazz club. They have pool, scrabble, foosball, chess and more.
All in all, lots of fun!
