    Way to go!

    I only made it 45 miles the first day... and 20 miles the second day.

    Honestly, I was so bored... riding alone... in the middle of the country.

    My knees started to hurt a little... and I was bored. At that point, I decided that I wanted my experience to be FUN... not a drag. So the first day I sagged after the lunch stop.

    And... I saved my knees for the second day... and getting to cross the finish line!

    But you were a serious trooper! WOW!

    Yea, I will do it again next year... IF I have a riding buddy... I won't do that alone again. It was so dull.

    Maybe we can get a group together and start training NOW for next year so we can make it FUN!

    I was sort of off by myself most of the day too, I agree, that wasn't fun. The riding was fun, the riding ALONE was not.

    Im stepping back on a training schedule next week when I get back from visiting my parents. I have taken the couple of weeks that I am off school off from any training as well. I have done a couple of "for fun" rides, but nothing serious.

    Sounds like a good plan!

    I have a triathlon June 18th and July 30th... and then after that I will be *open* for training.

    Assuming I don't find a tri to do in August! Ha!

    Yea... I did. The only *good* picture where you can really see me... I am making some funny face.

    I see you got it under your name over there. How did you do that? I have another picture I can put there.

    Go to user CP and click on edit avatar - then you can upload the little picture. I had to resize mine to 100 px high - if you need one resized, I can do that.

    Very nice pix too ma'am! Looks like it was a sunny day yes?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
