Aug 13 - 408 km cycling (1485 min) ... no, that's not a typo. My husband and I rode a 400 km randonnee starting at 7 am on Saturday 13 August and finishing 24 hours and 45 minutes later. I have the story almost ready to post to my blog, but essentially ...
We've been training for this for the past two months and chose this particular one because it fit in our schedules and was relatively flat. We started strongly, but at the 200 km point, I broke a tooth (the tooth was in questionable condition to begin with) which made the remaining 200 km a little more challenging than I had hoped. Breathing through my mouth was painful, so I was reduced to breathing through my nose. And eating was painful, so I ran rather low on energy. I was hoping to finish within 24 hours, but I guess an extra 45 minutes wasn't too bad.
We rolled into the start location at 7:45 am on Sunday.
Aug 15 - 0.5 km walking (7 min) ... airport.
Aug 16 - 3 km walking (35 min) ... to the beach and back to stretch things out.

I did some walking on August 29 and 30 but my records are at work.
I haven't been feeling well for a little while, and on Tuesday night I developed a rather serious, extensive (head to toe) rash. Went to the Dr on Wednesday and again this evening. Looks like this rash is a viral exanthem quite possibly loosely associated with measles. I'm going for bloodwork tomorrow to check things further.
Meanwhile, no exercise for me. And I'm not actually sure when I'll be able to exercise again.
I had a long ride planned for Saturday ... that will not happen now.0 -
