This was the first time that I did not feel good after a 100 miler. This will be my biggest 7 day period and it is catching up to me. Back was sore from some sciatica. I weathered the ride and plan on doing another 100 miler tomorrow. That would make 2 in 3 days and give me an idea what I have to look forward to this summer.
Total Distance: 44 miles
Total Time: 3 hours and 2 minutes

About Me
- Phil Benson
- I am 64 years old and have been a visionary my whole life. I saw Frank Shorter win the Olympics in 1972, and I said I want to run a marathon. Since then I have run 50. I watched the Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii on TV and I said I want to do that. 3 years later I finished the Iron man in Hawaii. I was 45 at the time. I watched all of the Tour de France this year,2009,and I said I want to do that. Unable to compete in the Tour, I will do the same miles they do on the same days in July. Can I do it? The saying goes "Man can achieve what the mind can conceive".
