Lauren, a lot of them did NOT race cross and yes, a lot of them have already been doing base miles. I have too ... maybe I've been slacking though & need to step up my game. :-). Didn't have to stop and pee, but I need to eat often to stay ahead of that bonk - I was considering taping ziploc bags to handlebars with food in them so I could get at my food while rolling & not have to try & reach back into jersey pockets with lobster gloves on. The guys would stop to pee - just right there on the side of the road - would whip it right out & go ... but they were all strong enough to catch back on.<BR/><BR/>Betsy - lord, you're up early! Headed out for a run?

It's all about growing more capillaries in your muscles. The ride you describe is rather using up all capillaries there are. Oooopsy!<BR/><BR/>But all good as long as you are having fun! :-) Everything that doesn't kill us is supposed to make us stronger, right? :-)Grooverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05746451980347654639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8341375666857022597.post-41780180365452203242009-01-06T08:02:00.000-05:002009-01-06T08:02:00.000-05:00erin - yes, there is hope for jane! although i am ...erin - yes, there is hope for jane! although i am getting payback in a big way with henry - he only eats pasta & chicken salad. maddening.<BR/><BR/>fatty will do fine - i suggest he ride to the ride to get in a warm up first - cause there is no warm up on ride. (we drove to the start to lessen time away from home & payment to sitter!)<BR/><BR/>gotta run - my hands were sore from gripping brakes so hard. and i just went to a bike maintenance class last night to find that brakes are worn down!<BR/><BR/>laurel - good call on sticking to the sandwich kind.<BR/><BR/>bettybetty - I hear ya ... evidently, last year - it was a little more traditionally base-mile oriented (speed-wise). at least the first few rides were. but saturdays ride was just blazes fast from the get go ... no warm up, nothing - everyone said they were not that fast last year. Had i had a little warm up, I don't think I would have struggled as much as I did. It was some tough shit, but the kind that makes you feel really good that you actually stuck it out & made it to the end (and I had a few opportunities to go with a slower group & once, to even turn around) - so while it was crazy hard, I'm pretty happy with the way it all went.zannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17169968339980800861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8341375666857022597.post-46605140963228908652009-01-06T07:22:00.000-05:002009-01-06T07:22:00.000-05:00so there is hope for jane? she might eat somethin...so there is hope for jane? she might eat something other than pbj some day?<BR/><BR/>fatty's thinking of doing it on saturday. i won't let him read this. ;)house on hill roadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10104468117468930961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8341375666857022597.post-67987379453299983742009-01-05T23:24:00.000-05:002009-01-05T23:24:00.000-05:00Sounds pretty intense.
