I meant to only do about 20 miles on this ride, and checked the map beforehand to see where my turnaround point should be. The plan was to do part of the Wachusett Reservoir loop, but at a certain point turn off onto a side street and follow it back where it would rejoin my outgoing path.
Unfortunately, I missed a turn, and ended up doing a loop back to where the halfway point was supposed to be. End result was an extra 10 miles.
The good news, though - is that I was purposely taking it rather easy on this trip. The goal with that was to try and prevent my quads from tightening up, pulling on the IT band. So as it turns out, the additional mileage didn't seem to put me at any worse for wear. I also made sure to spend a few minutes stretching after the ride was complete, before heading out on the run.
