I set out to stretch myself and contribute to a good cause. In the end, I made new friends and accomplished something I didn't think I could. Even better, I learned a lot about fitness and performance along the way. I ended up riding a total of almost 120 miles that day. I finished in the top 100 of the >2,000 field of riders. We had been trained and prepared well. I had enough energy left to ride back from the finish line to pick up remaining members of my team to wind-break and encourage them on to the finish line. We did this until we had every last one successfully across the finish. It was a fulfilling day. :)
