This weekend was my first century bike ride!  It actually was 110 miles on Saturday then 45 miles on Sunday.  I completed the first 100 miles right at 5:50, so I was happy.  I swear every time I changed direction so did the wind.

 

When I passed the 100 mile mark are started thinking, in an Ironman I would still have to get off the bike and run 26 miles!  No to mention completing the swim before getting on the bike!  My hat is off to any of you that have completed (or even tried) an Iron Man.  I don’t think people really understand what it means to complete one.  I know I didn’t!!!

How many have completed an Ironman?

Way to go Alan! I remember my first century, what an accomplishment. I agree though, the thought of then running 26 miles is amazing!! And in 5:50. Quite an impressive time.
