I must have lost my mind for after tackling the challenging 53 mile Tour de Cure ride yesterday I decided to partake in the evening club ride (27 miles) and then this morning I felt the need to do yet another club ride (50 miles). In reality I felt somewhat obligated to participate in this morning's ride given my BF was the ride captain and he is always supportive of my undertakings. So me and my very tired legs pushed on and on and on. His route was very beautiful and as always very challenging (lots of hills). I really felt good and strong the first 35 miles or so and then the bottom fell out at a rapid pace. I really struggled the last 15 miles and often found myself contemplating some shortcuts I knew of. Yet that little voice inside of me told me to keep pushing on to the end and so I did but boy are my legs tired. The good news is this I do feel like I am ready for the century I want to do on June 11. The 130 miles I covered since yesterday morning have taken me through some beautiful countryside. I've met some really nice people and got to enjoy some great weather. All in all it has been a fantastic weekend.
