Last long bike before WLH, and a good one.

Bike 2h 43m 10s 53.68 miles 19.74 Mi/hr

53miler - Climb: 2123.00 feet


This is just the ride I needed for the taper. Not too fast, got to really focus on nutrition planning. Fueled up with a pbbh sandwich (peanut butter banana and honey), then headed out. One bottle of GU2O 2 scoops, one w/3. Full aerodrink. Gu flask w/3 orange GUs and a tad of water. One Fig fruit bar. Carried my margarita shot bloks in case of cramps. It was 83F by the end of the ride. Nursed on the 2 scoop bottle and water first, occasional sips from the GU flask. Ate the bar at 28 miles. Took 2 Shot bloks at about 40 miles, left leg was cramping just slightly. Not an issue. Stopped for another water bottle in Moncure (planned). That cold water was SO GOOD! I felt great the whole ride. TAPER!!!

6am run with Greg tomorrow Umstead, 8-9 miles or so.
