Anyway, my exercise for the day was walking around the zoo! It was actually a work-sponsored thing. We were there for a good 3.5 hrs in the afternoon. Part of the time was standing looking at animals and part was sitting eating lunch, but I'm sure we got in *at least* 5 miles of walking.
FYI, this is the profile I captured last year from the bike event we're doing this weekend. It's not so much the distance that I'm worried about, but the climb in the middle. Yikes!
You weren't kidding about running at altitude with you! I'd just have to swing by and hit that hill once or twice and I'd be set. It looks very scary!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it won't be that bad in person??? I'm just doing some wishful thinking for you.
ReplyDeletewhoa, that's quite the bump in the road eh? LOL You'll do great!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like one heck of a climb. Wow! You can do it. Can you push your bike up if you have to? I'm not saying you would have to, I'm just askin'!! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty long climb! But it doesn't look too steep on average, ~ 2% grade (1000 ft over 10 miles). The downhill part would bother me a lot more. Make sure those brakes are working well!

ReplyDeleteWhoa. Good luck with that NOT SO slight elevation!
ReplyDeleteWow that's a steep climb!
ReplyDeleteThat is one big climb! But what goes up must come down!
ReplyDeleteThat climb is pretty intense! But I know you'll get through it and enjoy coasting down the other side!
ReplyDeleteWow. You wouldn't find elevation like that around here! LOL
ReplyDeleteThe climb looks quite intense! Good luck and may you conquer it well.
ReplyDeleteMy quads hurt just looking at your elevation map.
ReplyDeleteA 1,000 foot climb in about 12 miles? Yep, yikes, indeed!
ReplyDeletewow, that's a fourteen mile climb... have fun :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's one mega hill! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteoh holy snack that hill looks big! but i bet you'll kick it's butt. wishing you AWESOME luck on that ride.
ReplyDeleteVery,scary climb but love the downhill- Whee!
ReplyDeleteEeek! I think you'd better photoshop the map and stretch it out a bit so it doesn't look so bad
ReplyDeleteWow! That's a heck of a hill! Good luck this weekend and have fun!

Ummm, maybe you should have not brought up the hill profile for the bike ride. Just look down and keep on pedaling and you will do fine :)
ReplyDeleteWow that looks like a pretty fair size hill. Good luck on your bike ride
