BIKE 50.35 miles on MCT, hit 50.0 at 2:57:24
ave 16.8 mph, ave HR 121
I wasn't sure I'd have the legs for this after yesterday's long run, and I really didn't have legs for this. But I wanted it and did it anyway. I kept it super simple. Out n back on Schoolhouse, out to the dead end along the interstate, then back out on Schoolhouse. FYI, from Culvers to end of Schoolhouse back past Culvers and past Drost to the dead end is a nice neat 25 miles. And the ONLY change in elevation is around Maryville/Drost Park.
I had no spark for speed, but endurance and all else felt fine. I stopped again at QT for my snacks but this time the bill for 2 mini dark chocolates, 2 cherries and 2 mints with chocolate came to 1.81. I was brain fuzzed, couldn't figure it out, and ended up only getting the minis. Oh well. Guess the guy was doing me a favor. In the end, I didn't need any extra nutrition anyway.
30 miles or so was my goal, 50 I thought would be a stretch but of course once I got rolling I realized I could really to 50. Then I realized I might could squeeze in under 3 hours and that drove me to the end. Squeeeeeze success!
Felt great, but I was wiped!
