Should I do the Metric, or the whole thing?

Lots of good advice here. I think stick with the metric and finish it strong.

Set a date for doing the 112 on your own. It can be a mid range goal.

I agree with V (and whoever else she agreed with )

My approach is, I'd rather finish a ride strong and happy and invigorated rather than worn out and possibly demoralized.

There's also the SAG thing. I don't like to rely on SAG drivers as a bailout, I think they're more there for people with unexpected problems, either mechanical or physical.

Keep trucking, Starfish, we're all rooting for you!

You guys are so great!

I have definitely decided to do the metric, remember my larger goal, and figure out the schedule for doing the 112 later (preferably about 3 times before the big day in August). Thanks, all. I greatly appreciate your time and input!
