Had bad wind and hot sun, and I couldnt keep HR below 145. Still experimenting what to do in first 65 so I finish last 35. My first century (60yrs old). Any suggestions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1232091377002858688.post-6571398284106305742008-06-07T19:41:00.000-05:002008-06-07T19:41:00.000-05:00How true.

Today the conditions were identical to the day I bonked, with high temperatures, winds and humity. I went for a 20 mile ride as fast I could peddle and my heart and lungs would carry me. It felt GREAT. I was stronger for having bonked.Cal Meuzelaarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07279158967020919046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1232091377002858688.post-25641929757608595812008-06-06T22:38:00.000-05:002008-06-06T22:38:00.000-05:00a lesson with spiritual applications... :)a lesson with spiritual applications... :)Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418200517338216765noreply@blogger.com
