80 Miles & Beav On The Loose!

I think my training is finally catching up with me, in a good way. I biked 80 miles today and it took nothing out of me. Literally. Nothing. What a great ride! Everything was just in synch -- my nutrition was right on, my head was in the game, and I pushed it at all the right times. My coaches are always telling us to spin up the hills and attack the downhills, and it totally worked for me today. And to top it all off, I saw a beaver! Just waddling along on the sidewalk, not a care in the world. (Obviously this was not in Manhattan -- I rode across the GWB and up to Bear Mountain.) And no, I was not hallucinating.

For (my own) future reference, the rolling buffet consisted of:
4 bottles gatorade endurance + carbopro (1150)
2 bottles water
12 clif blocks w/ caffeine (400)
27 combos (390)

Total: 1940 calories
