First hill repeats of the year. 12.5 miles, 1500', 1 hour on the nose. 2.5 mile ride to the hill, then 3 times up the same 1.2 mile, 360' climb...takes 8 - 10 minutes each climb. Nice workout...but I'm too fat and too slow for this sport.

Had a great workout on the leg press. I feel like something is missing though. I think I may go ride the rollers for an hour or so now. Which is staggering, for I barely got the last rep up only 20min ago.

dstrong, I saw your sig, and I thought for a second, you had a Chevy Impala with one of those interloc breathalyzer machines installed in it. Then I goggled it, and realized that your not a drunk.

Why thank you.
In addition to completing the same grueling course as the participants, a road marshal must skillfully navigate through scores of hazards and be mindful not to tip over during slow-speed hill climbs.

Oh, I didn't realize you were road-marshalling again.
