They say that the training is way harder than the race, and I think I have to agree. I find myself questioning my sanity every few miles.
Yes, I definitely agree. Training is so much more of a mental challenge. I told my husband it often either feels like a second job or a second marriage depending on what day you ask me

For some reason a 3 hour bike ride doesn't phase me as much as a 3 hour run. I guess cycling comes easier, so it's easy to go longer distances and enjoy it rather than feel like every mile is a battle.
