longest brick to date! 65 mile ride 2 mile run
was supposed to do 210 min ride with a 20 min run. Today we decided we wanted to change it up and give ourselves a new challenge. We joined some friends and rode from their house ACROSS state lines (ok its not that big of a deal) and rode hilly hilly windy roads to Boston Ga~Nice weather. Had a Gu on the way out at about 55 min. Then decided once we hit our turn around point why not go a little further into town. So we rode for an extra 30 minutes!! While in the sweet little town of Boston we stopped at a little cafe and had a burger (plain) with sweet potatoe fries and an unsweet tea!! hit the spot!! Was there for about 20 min. nice little break at 33 miles!! Now on to our way back!! Now is where it gets very windy!!! So sticking with the plan every 45 min on way back I stopped and took a Gu drank some G2 gatoraid and started again for the next 45. It worked PERFECTLY!!! Like having the nutrition down. No high and lows. Felt really good. Need to get a longer straw for my hydration system but other than that no complaints. Even though I should have run immediately following bike, we came back to the house and did our 20 min 2 mile run here so not running on hilly back roads without alot of room! Felt really good!!! Now time for some stretching and ice tub bath!! Really enjoyed the challenge of the hills and of course had great company....The scenery was really nice. The cars were not too bad but still they make me nervous!! Happy Sunday!!
