Saturday morning we got up at 3:30 am, loaded our bikes and gear and set out to ride our bikes from Seattle to Portland (STP).
Our support crew so kindly dropping us off at 4:45 at Uof W. Without Christa being so willing to watch kiddos, drop us off, then later in the evening head to Portland pick us up and bring us back to Bellevue, we would not have been able to do it. Thank you Christa!!
This is at 50 miles, no problem!
At 202.25 miles we are still smiling, just not so energetic!
All in all it was a great day, the weather was a little windy from mile 50 on, but the temps were perfect! Our actual bike time was 12 hours. The hardest part of a long ride like that is mental strength, both Lars and I felt very strong, there was never a doubt in either of us about finishing, we knew we could do it, and that was huge. To be able to share this experience with Lars was so wonderful, I am a very lucky gal!
