    ok... i'm 1/3 of the way through my ride "marathon" i survived breathless agony! i made it to the top of onyx with time to spare before the 3:30 cut-off... i cried like a baby when i got there!

    my knees hurt/ached... just below the knee cap... where they would be sore if you had been climbing around on your knees all day.. and the middle of my upper back.. between my shoulder blades (that always happens on longer rides)... but nothing drastic or out of the ordinary that you wouldn't expect after all that climbing... soooooo i sent in my registration for next saturday's old route 66 century!

    i was stiff when i woke up sunday... but did manage a recovery ride... 20 slowish and very easy miles... then last night after work i did 16ish.. 1/2 with a WICKED headwind (couldn't manage over 10 mph going DOWNHILL that i usually get up 32 mph! ) other than the wind i felt fine... and my knees aren't aching anymore...
