Cape Ann(dy)

September 10, 2017 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Bike

Comments:
My high school teammate Andy Garin (a.k.a. BEAST) and I did a beautiful 40 mile loop around Cape Ann starting in Manchester-by-the-Sea (site of a very sad movie by the same name), up through Gloucester (site of another sad book/movie, "A Perfect Storm") and out to Rockport where we got all the seafood we could imagine: stuff clams, lobster rolls, clam chowder, smoked salmon. Then we biked back, toward the end of which I was pretty darn tired having already run 16 miles. To cap off this reverse triathlon, we went swimming (or rather "lazy river" floating) in this tidal creek that goes rushing out into the ocean at low tide. Perfect end to summer!
