Tim - I do 13 one-way fairly often in my "long-way" Seattle commute. Here are a few things I've found that helps: 1. leave the heavy clothes at work, and don't carry your computer if you can help it. 2. give yourself ample time, and take your time - easy to get tired out after a few days of an hour of elevated heart rate. 3. don't worry too much about rain gear. I find myself only donning rain gear in the worst downpours. Most Seattle rain is harmless to humans.
I have a recent write-up on this stuff: http://stonehog.wordpress.com/2013/05/01/commuting-primer/ Brian Seattle, WA On Mon, May 13, 2013 at 5:17 PM, Tim Tetrault <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Gang- > > I'm contemplating a long commute in the Seattle area- 15 miles each way > (long for me anyway) on my Hilborne.
