Spring Catch-Up #1

I have seriously neglected my blog lately... so, I will attempt to catch up over the next few days....


Over Mother's Day weekend... we traveled up to Utah County so I could ride in the Goldilocks Century!  A few of my friends and I went up there with our families to ride it together.  It was so fun!!  My friend Janette and I were the only ones who did the 100 miles. We got to see so much beautiful scenery, we also saw a few animals on the way!  Our families were great support vehicles and chased us around all day.  It took about 8 hours for us to finish.... 7 hours on the bike...but we didn't try and hurry-- we both just wanted to finish. Niether of us had ridden over 35-40 miles at one time.  The last 15 miles were pretty tough-- we had a pretty strong headwind and were pretty wiped out!  But we made it!  When we got to the finish line-- our odometer's on our biked didn't say 100 miles... so we rode around the parking lot until they did say 100 miles!   Anyway-- it was a fun, fun time!  I wasn't even that sore the next day!!


At the end!!!
