Reach the Beach – Outlook

Reach the Beach – our 100-mile bicycle ride & fundraiser – is coming up on Saturday (there is still time to sponsor me!) As mentioned before, we’ve had a most miserable spring to train for this sucker. And now Mother Nature is gearing up for a complete, total and sudden reversal. We started the week with temps in the 40’s and tomorrow are due for 94. Saturday has a high temp prediction of 91. Eeek.

We’ve trained enough (barely) in terms of miles, but I don’t know how prepared we are going to be for the heat. Riding my bicycle home from work yesterday in 67 degrees seemed hot.

So we are drinking water and eating a lot of good food and resting this week (the best part of an event is the week or two of “rest” you get to indulge in just before) and hopefully we don’t succumb to the heat.

Wish us luck !!
