50 Days...100 Miles

In 50 days, I will be participating in Ironman Wisconsin. I am looking forward to it, although after today's 100 mile ride, I am nervous about running a marathon (26.2 miles) after swimming 2.4 miles, then riding 112 miles. I definitely need a few more rides at that distance.

Today was the Holland Hundred, a century ride that started and finished in Holland and toured the west coast down to about South Haven. We went through the big cities of Douglas, Saugatuck, Fennville, Ganges, and many others. It was a lot of fun despite the 3 hours of rain. Overall, the ride took just over 5 hours! And yes, my butt is sore! I think I will take tomorrow off.
