Good for you!

I remember preparing for a Century ride - man, was I nervous! Turns out, if you’re prepared, and you take it at your own pace, and make sure to stay hydrated and fed, it’s merely exhausting, not actually impossible.

I’m a little terrified, mostly excited. My biggest worry is the pace - you have to maintain a 16 mile/min pace in order to finish the course. I did 7 miles today at a 13:23 min pace, so it’s a matter of just working up my endurance at this level, I think. I’ve got six months to train.

(It’s Star Wars themed. It’s at Disneyland. I stood NO CHANCE especially since it was the Dark Side one at Disney World in April that first put the idea into my head of maybe doing one someday…)
