Team In Training
Sorry for the late update, I've been sick the past couple of days.
On Sunday the team met up in Newburyport and rode 45 miles. First we rode up and down hills for 17 miles up Rt. 1, not quite sure, but I think we went as far as Danvers, then turned around and rode 14.5 miles in the opposite direction! Yep, that's about 32 miles of hills! They weren't easy, but we'll be thanking Coach Don for it when we get to Tahoe! After riding Rt. 1 we skipped over to 1A and rode out to Plum Island. The sea breeze was really holding me back! Once we turned around and had it at our backs I was ok though, and we continued back to Rt. 1 and our starting point. My legs wer sore after the ride, but seemed fine by Monday. Monday morning I awoke with a bad cold, which is still hanging on a bit. I hope to be healthy again by the weekend, when we will be riding 50 miles and adding hills! (I'm supposed to thank Don, right?) ;0)
