72 miles in the saddle this morning. now some well deserved beer & pool time.
That's awesome. I've been going in reverse on cardio. Hitting the weights four days a week. Need to find some balance.
I need to hit the weights for my lower back, just thinking about the pounding it's going to take on a 100mi ride is bringing a tear to my eye
I did 10 mile and 20 mile rides yesterday, and an exhausting 16 mile ride today at break neck pace with a friend of mine who is a 4 time Ironman participant. Jesus, he whipped my rough ridin' ass....I have a lot of room to improve.
those are some nice rides. also good move on going out with an IM rider, you can learn a ton from those guys.
the guy I've been riding with is doing another one next month and I have agreed to do a 100mi with him and his buddy next Saturday.
I'm pretty sure the last 20 miles I will be stuck on his wheel drafting and just hoping I survive somehow.
