Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Yes, it's Barb's Race. This will be my first relay. I don't do running or swimming. I ventured into running for a while. Did two half marathons of "walk/running" ... but officially retired from running never to return! Why run when I can ride a bike?!

Have you done this event before and, if so, can you tell me about the cycling portion. I read a pretty decent race report about it, but I'd like to know what the actual elevation gain is and any other comments you have about it. I know there are a lot of rolling hills and one big hill at the end.
Maybe we'll see you there.

Keep bringing 'em ladies! Remember, this is a triathlon relay, so bike specific names won't work ... but cute ideas.

Thanks. Congrats on getting your 16 average on the bike, since that's the high end of what you were shooting for. Originally Posted by Veronica

Did you use a bike computer that tells you elevation gain? Do you know what it was? I'm not "too" worried about it at this point, but curious.GO RIDE YOUR BIKE!!!

Ok. I guess you've got your reasons. How about "No-Car Nation" (some kinds of carnations are called pinks).
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Well if it is Barb's race they are doing - a women's only HIM, the race is in honor of a multiple cancer survivor.
It's a great venue. I raced last year and will again this year.
