kimk - 2010-07-20 11:29 AM ok team my race is done...recovery might take longer then I thought legs are fried and I have another race this Sunday!  Will update the spreadsheet.

TriAya - 2010-07-20 9:14 AM Another Etape, (Stage), over an hour in the books.

I'm seriously BUSTing out my T.I.T.S. for this challenge. How's everyone else doing?

I put down an hour long stage this morning myself!  Two more stages for me... a 3hr and a 1hr ride...  I may need to increase my goals too....

mchally - 2010-07-20 3:11 PM Sorry folks, I seem to be failing.  I had a bit of food poisoning yesterday and the day before.  Plus my lower back is really hurting from my open water swim on Saturday.  The first mile wasn't back, but then there was nearly 2.5 miles of swells that continually increased in size.  My lower back and neck are sore from sighting...I couldn't seem to swim straight for the life of me.

Hey, I would rather see you set 500 and get 480 than set 350 and get 370. 

Have a great week of riding.

As ususal, Yanti is right.

As ususal, Yanti is right. Your report is great and I am in awe of having two races so close together.

TriAya - 2010-07-21 12:48 PM My T.I.T.S. today--EXCITING!!!

Went out on the mountain bike to put in some time and errands--pickup here, dropoff there, etc. Due to the VP coming to MY little neighborhood, the whole place was cordoned off and military police everywhere. Pretty hard getting out, but I'm a smooth talker.

So an HOUR AND A HALF LATER, I'm SURE it must be fine--nope, every single access point to my house is still blocked. Good thing I was on a MTB because I literally rode through jungles/weeds, on the sand on the beach, to get to this dirt alley/trail cuts through a village behind the house ...

and lo and behold, at the top of the trail are military police, and I have to do all kinds of smooth talking and important-people-card-waving to get them to let me through.

1. Very good I was on the mountain bike, and not a regular bike, or God forbid in a car.
2. Very good I was doing errands, which meant I had my wallet/ID/cards with me.
