GMR Ride

It was all about the mountain this weekend. I did the Glendora Mountain Road/Ridge ride with the team - total miles 82. About a 5% percent grade for 10 miles and rolling hills afterwards while going against a strong wind...it was tough ride to say the least. Excellent practice and training! I tried Hammer product "Perpetuem" powder for energy drink and it was pretty good; I think I'll trade off between Cytomax and Hammer products. Stinger Waffles are still my favorite ride snack.
Next weeks challenge - Gran Fondo Century ride in San Diego :-)

Building A Base

Building my bike base: 60 miles of hills the last few weeks and now onto a long distance century ride.
Running only about 20-25 miles per week.
Its starting to get warmer and soon I'll start to build up my swim endurance.
Good Times!
