Seriously. considering the conditions and your stomach- you stuck it through some tough times out there and when you look back a few years from now, I bet you toughing this course out will be even more rewarding than louisville. my stomach sucked too and I had to walk a ton. I puked once on the bike and 5 times at the finish. the dry heat was just totally brutal. so glad I got to see you out there- enjoy your recovery and the rest of the season! you looked great out there when I saw you (and it was at the end of an uphill if I remember right!!!)Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00060873827797823041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5085602780668439250.post-65828938896598356572011-05-17T17:30:04.066-07:002011-05-17T17:30:04.066-07:00That course sounds freaking insane.
