LiveStrong Challenge - Philly 2012
The event is just under a month away. Who else is planning to do it? I'm doing the 100 mile route.

I am doing the 100 mile route, if I can make the cut off in the time alotted, if I can get out of the staging area within 15 mins of the actual start, if I don't hurl because I am not in the same shape I was last year at this point.

Good luck guys! I'll be there on a Litespeed Classic with yellow handlebar tape (and the whitest legs in the pack).

Did anyone see Doug Ulman on that pink granny bike with a basket of flower on front? He could not even get up the first bump in the road
How long did Lance ride? Lame that he did not do the 100 because he was in the hotel bar too late

I pulled along side Doug on that pink bike and he said it was a lot harder to ride then he thought it would be. Not the bike I would choose but he was having fun.
I heard Lance rode the 20 and spent some time with some of the cyclists on that route.
I did the 100 once again. I always say I will never do that again and I'm saying it again. Not as easy route for those of us 200 +. It took me 7 hours even. my Garmin said 6932 feet of climbing
