Was going out for an easy ride. Did that but went longer than I had anticipated. It was so nice and I felt good. Getting anxious but I plan just two more long rides on Friday and Saturday. Opening day of the event has been scheduled. A week from this Saturday I will start at Central Jersey Bank's main headquarters in Ocean Township. The bank is my sponsor. I will ride with the bank president and my wife who said she will give it a try. It is a 5 mile ride, not to taxing for anyone. The real ride starts the next day with a 140 mile ride. Almost there.
Crunches: 300
Push ups: 50
Total Distance: 45 miles
Total Time: 2 hours and 57 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".
