A ticking time bomb?

What's that ticking noise, Andrew?

Hmmm, the birds are singing too loudly, I don't hear anything.

I think it's coming from my knee!

Oh yeah, I can hear it now, just like my old car!

Sheesh!

15.1 miles in 1:59 ,avg hr 142
1- 8:48 easy start
2- 7:50
3- 7:56
4- 7:50 - watch out for those Rotweillers!
5- 8:28 - stop for A's water
6- 7:55
7- 8:05 - there's a good hill in South Meadow
8- 7:44 - rolling down the other side, engine ticking starts (no pain)
9- 7:36 - nice downhills
10- 7:38 - ticking now less noticeable
11- 7:47 - good uphill in the middle
12- 7:35 - home stretch with warm sun in our face
13- 7:43 - another uphill I guess
14- 7:37 - cruise past the cars after a short argument discussion
15- 7:32 - return back up the hill to end

Fantastic spring morning. Cool 2C at start but sunshine and warming up nicely. Another great run at Boyden Lake.
