Closing in on the last week of the CTER 140.6 and I'm struggling to get in the bike mileage. Even with yesterday's road bike purchase, I took my trusty old mountain bike out today when the weather warmed up into the 50's and was relatively sunny (that is, until I got about 2 miles down the road and here came the clouds and wind - ugh). Today was all about knocking out some mileage. I did a few hills along the way, but mostly hit the flat-ish stuff around the Scholastic complex. Frustrating how slow it goes. It took me 1 hr 45 min to do 18 miles (that included 4 real hills). I know I was getting tired and sore along the way, but it is still kind of frustrating.
So here are the new CTER 140.6 totals (with a week to go - ack! - knew that bike mileage was going to be tough):
Swim: 2.02/2.4
Bike: 64.5/112
Run: 34.5/26.2
Whoa...you bought a road bike?? Clearly I need to read back a little. Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteDon't give up on those bike miles. With a good week you can get them in. It's amazing what we can accomplish when we're motivated by a (what other people would probably consider silly) challenge. You can do it!
I saw 3-4 of your model on Cannondale today at the race. Looks like a nice frame. One great thing about Cannondale's aluminum frames are that the welds and tube shaping are absolutely some of the best out there.
ReplyDeleteI had a Cannondale road bike I rode for a year and loved it!
