Yea! I did it!

Yesterday I completed my first 8k! I’ve been cross training to hopefully improve my endurance out on the trails. And I am excited to say that I was able to finish despite the nasty rainy conditions and cold that almost sent me back home!


Wet and Cold!

Even RL rode alongside me on his bike to cheer me on! He thought he’d bring the Xtracycle in case I got tired. Hehe. Then I could just hop on for a ride back to the finish line. But apparently the other runners frown on that sort of thing.


That’s me in the green! The race would have been more fun on that Xtracycle!

Well, it felt pretty good to finish. I am on to a 10k now. But without a doubt, I have to say I like riding my bike waaay more then running. There’s just more adventures in bike riding! But I am hoping this will help with a couple of mountain bike races that are approaching!


On my way to the finish line!!! 😀

While these other pansies are riding mountain bikes with their matching spandex and color coordinated...so called KITS...I'm bangin' their wives at home and she just served me breakfast in bed and I washed it down with a cold beer. Enjoy your ride suckas, cuz I know I did!
