I am really excited about the idea, but there is no doubt that I might have lost my mind just a little bit. Here are the details:
I had a nice conversation with my coach, and he is on board for it. I emailed the two people I know who have done, or are going to do the race, and I already got some great ideas and advice.
I am just going to keep on training for St. George, but training harder. If, in February, I find out that I do not get in, I will be better prepared for St. George. If I do get in, then I will begin preparations. And oh, man, there are a lot of things to prepare. This is a three day adventure more than it is a race. I will just keep my fingers crossed and train hard.
Today, I am going to ride for a while. Though it is so much easier to just go to the silver comet trail, I need to start forcing some hills onto my legs. I am going to go down to South Fulton to ride and hopefully get some good work in this morning!
Woo hoo! That last paragraph is kinda tragic, though, given the way that things turned out. :-(
ReplyDeleteI know, right! It seems unfair that I was punished for getting out there to ride hills!
