Today was one of that most difficult days on the ride:well tour so far. We had to ride 129 miles through the desert known as Arizona. The day started when we woke up at 3 am! Yes, the sun was not out. We all got up and hit the road as the sun was coming up. That was beautiful!
I started the ride with the group of guys that usually ride really fast, because I knew I had to keep a pace of 15 miles an hour in order to finish. This was incredibly difficult! They definitely encouraged me to keep going, and I was able to draft off of them, which definitely helped! I know at about mile 55 I was very tired and wanted to stop, but they would not let me! So thanks guys for encouraging me and letting me draft off all of you!
Thing I learned today:
You just can’t stop because its difficult. Just have to keep going. It will be worth it in the end.
Finished in 12 hours!
