Met up with Ryan, Camilla, and Dad for our long ride on Saturday! It was great to get together. I rode with Camilla most of the way out and we just chatted the whole time. She's awesome! I was really annoyed (ok, angry) when I got ANOTHER flat tire! Ugh! I was ready to give up biking then and there. Four flats in the last four rides does not equal happiness. :( Sorry you had to see my grumpiness, family. After fixing the tire, we took off again and enjoyed the rest of the ride.
After Camilla turned around, I sped up to catch Ryan and he pushed me for a while as we rode together. It was a really easy pace for him, but it was tough for me. Being pushed was good for me, though. My bike rides so smooth and fast! The road was a fantastic training ride with very little traffic and an extremely smooth pavement. 90 minutes and about 25 miles.....half of what I'll do at the race!
Thanks for the ride, guys!!
You underestimate your abilities, Camilla! We were riding at a pretty good pace for quite a while on the way back. By next June, that pace should feel pretty comfortable for you! Keep on pushing! Let me know how master class goes for you. I really think it's a good idea to join up with those guys! Work those workouts into this program. Modify it to work for your schedule and it'll be perfect! Week three begins today! Yes!!!!!
