Quick note: I was not involved in this event at all, but I wanted an epic picture. :)
Before the end of the school year, I had set a personal goal of completing a "century ride" (100 miles) by the end of Summer 2010.
Today, I completed it. Although I've been recovering from a minor crash, I've been coming back with a vengeance and knocked out 101.66 miles over the course of 13.5 hours - that includes my breaks, so my total ride time was closer to 11 hours. You can check out my route here. (By the way, it's a really nifty way to track your workouts! There's similar sites for running, hiking, triathlons, general fitness, and more - just scroll down to the very bottom of the home page.)
Just wanted to keep you all posted - hope you're progressing on your goals too! Now that I've accomplished this, I will still be commuting to work on my bike while the weather holds up (saves gas and it's pretty fun), but I will be spending more time on the mat before the school year begins. I head back to preliminary meetings in early August, so I'm starting on it tomorrow!
