My buddy Jason is training for his first Ironman which is in 3 weeks. Today was a 100 mile ride for him and since I knew how tough those solo hundreds are I offered to ride with him for the first 50. Jason is a much stronger rider than I am but I figured his 100 mile pace would be equal to my 50 pace... Well I was wrong he is an animal! On my best day I can hold 20 MPH for 50 miles, but since I was neither rested nor fueled it was not my best day, but not wanting to hold Jason back I pushed 110% and we hit the 50 mile mark at 2:20!! (just shy of 21.5 MPH) Jason headed out for his second 50 and I headed for the car. My legs are DESTROYED!!!! Glad tomorrow is a rest day!
