What a great idea! My husband and I just got bikes last month and have been riding but that won't work in MO for the winter, so bowling might just work!! I'm going to look into it!
Keep going and let us know!

It was hard! But I beat my previous time by 20 minutes so I'm proud of myself. And I've only been training since, um, June 26th. Next one will be better :)

It was hard! But I beat my previous half by 20 minutes so I'm pretty proud of myself. And I didn't die, which is an accomplishment in and of itself :)

how did the race go. be easy on yourself make sure you walk and let the body recover

Nothing else to say but that just SUCKS....and your right, no cyclist purposely tries to ride on the gravel. He obviously wasn't paying attention

i will be back not giving in just upset. i just can not figure out how he could not see me. he was such a big guy so the impact was even harder. i am only 5 ft and he must be close to 6 and big and solid

yes there are rules. I needed to stop for a few minutes and i was on a straight away. no hills no bends in the road no cars around no bikes pulled off of the road onto the gravel which you are allowed to do since the bikes are suppose to be on the road. i went to get some fuel out and bang. i have no idea how he did not see me or why he would have been near the gravel. no riders like to ride on gravel. no drafting is allowed. i did everything right so i be safe. no reason to hit me. seeing the doctor tomorrow.

So sorry about your race, that sounds pretty awful :
I did my second ever half marathon yesterday. Today I've done as little as possible.
Tu - rest, maybe a short walk, yoga
W - pilates class
Th - easy run, yoga
F - zenga class
Sa - running, yoga
Su - pingpong with my mom (it's a workout!)
