But you probably already knew that.
All four of us completed the "Tour de Donut" today. This ride is billed as the only ride that allows you to finish before you start. Each donut consumed knocks 5 minutes off your elapsed time riding...completely and totally not worth it to me.
Nathan and I held up pretty well. We both agreed that it was harder than we'd expected it to be. Fortunately, the official training rides that we'll do for the MS 150 will start off shorter than this one. So, we know we can do at least the first three without too much trouble. After that, we'll have trained sufficiently for 39 miles to seem like nothing!
Erin and I rode together for the first 20 miles and then we traded partners so I could ride with Nathan for a while. We dragged our butts across the finish line after about 2 1/2 hours of actual riding and about 3 hours elapsed.
We packed the car back up and headed home where I made breakfast for lunch. Nathan and Erin both ate 10 pancakes. Nathan added about six pieces of bacon to that!
Now I'm off to doing laundry and grading papers. Hope I can stay awake until 10 tonight!
