Yesterday I took my 12-year-old daughter out for a (90-degree, high humidity, morning) training ride in anticipation of a (mini-)triathlon we're doing together next month. She amazed me by surviving my 20+ mile training loop, when I had suggested we cut it off at 7.5 miles ... insisted we keep going and finish the longer loop. No problems. Triathlon, watch out!
