1000 mile spring

I rolled past 1000 miles of riding this spring on the Bonneville Shoreline Freeway trail last night. 567 miles (37 hours) on the road and 444 miles (47 hours) on the MTB. Adding in the 26 hours I did on the trainer since December and that's the best winter/early spring I've ever had. I felt fantastic on the White Rim last Saturday and I think the early season miles had a lot to do with that. Hopefully the weather cooperates and I can have a great spring season and come on strong in the late summer endurance races. It's too bad there aren't any nearby endurance races before August though. I guess I'll just have to settle for getting shelled in a couple ICUP's.

Now you did it. You made me look. I am 800 miles and 63 hours behind you. Wow I am impressed. Especially when you consider the weather.

I think Bob played Football without a helmet. He may have also grown up under high power lines.
