I drove the course this afternoon and although I was in a truck, I don't think the hills will be as tough as the trainer. At least not for the first loop - that second loop has me concerned!<br /><br />The wind was howling out of the south this morning so the whitecaps were pounding the shore. Glad it got that out of its system - now it should be glass for Sunday.richvanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09636326043119926413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914820944052981604.post-18779457327494546822009-06-15T16:23:18.893-07:002009-06-15T16:23:18.893-07:00I agree with JT.

Don't let this ride shake your confidence. You've already done the training and nothing you do during the last couple weeks of tapering should matter. <br /><br />YOU GOT THIS!!!ShirleyPerlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09237828591170908960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914820944052981604.post-9135492268074917152009-06-15T09:18:30.026-07:002009-06-15T09:18:30.026-07:00I ran 5 miles through wet cement yesterday, so... ...I ran 5 miles through wet cement yesterday, so... yeah... I hear ya. <br /><br />When I was done I thought, "Gee, only 135.6 to go! Super!"<br /><br />Some things I have been meaning to tell you, but have been too f-ing tired to:<br /><br />1. You are a HUGE F-ING ROCKSTAR! I cannot believe you did ALL of the King of the Mountains Challenge! <br /><br />2. You have gotten so fast and strong! I am so amazed by/proud of/happy for you! <br /><br />3. We are racing on Father's Day. It is YOUR day! You will rock this thing! <br /><br />4. Thank you for everything. You have been such a great friend and source of support through this whole crazy thing.<br /><br />I can't wait to see you in CdA! <br /><br />p.s. I am DEAD serious about the saving me pizza thing. You fight those damn skinny sons of bitches off. ;o)RBRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14193497073393160994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914820944052981604.post-87513795350005810682009-06-15T09:08:47.553-07:002009-06-15T09:08:47.553-07:00Your going to do great.
