I felt great. My knees creaked a tiny bit, but nothing like they used to when I first started doing 2+ hour rides.
I have to plan a bit better, though. After I got back, I drank a ton of water and suddenly realized I was starving. There was no food, because I lack planning skills, so I ended up running to Qdoba for a truly enormous quesadilla. So, next big ride:
- Put the camelbak back together and drink more water!!
- Definitely bring food again
- Make sure there's easy to prepare food waiting at home
Tonight I'll pack my gym clothes and go to the gym tomorrow. I miss lifting heavy things :)
Good for you!!!! Where`s the pics??Lol
ReplyDeleteI lack packing skills as well. I'll go, go, go all day and forget to eat, drink, or potty. LOL. Glad you guys are feeling great the day after :)
ReplyDeleteIt just takes a little bit to figure everything out.
ReplyDeleteYou would think that by now, I would have everything down when it comes time to start competing again, but every year, I seem to forget multiple things the first few events. LOL
Yeah, I'm with Cheyenne - where's the pics?
ReplyDeleteit's been a loooong time since i've put in a serious long ride like that. not sire how i'd do, especially the day after :-/ you rock! glad you're both feeling good the next day!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who forgets to pack or eat!
