Back to Back 10 hr days

Yeah, that's right...20 hrs in two days. And I only rode a combined total of 80 some-odd miles. The past few days, I have been vollunteering at a boy scout camp for one of my friends, John Stansfield. I met John when Micah and I were running the MU Club, as he was our faculty contact. Our ride consisted of a three mile loop around Stevens Park, a local summer hot spot. By the time 7 groups of with a combined total of 100 scouts visited me throughout the day, I had rode a whopping 21 miles in 8 hrs. One must always remember the wise words of Luke Musselman, "chamois time is trainging time".

So, I have another 5 hr day planned with the scouts...which reminds me, I only made it to a bear scout before moving and totally losing interest in the boy scout way; however, this pretty much makes me an honorary Tenderfoot, which I have been told it well on my way to an Eagle scout. I will keep you posted on any future service projects.

Before my long arduous days in the saddle with the campers, I went out early for some rides of my own. Wednesday, I crawled around for a bit, then came home and hit a core workout. Yesterday, me and Master Prozenberger rode a pretty hard Ashland (well, out to Ashland, then I rode home...Jason had to work). We rode at and above tempo the entire ride. I managed to make it up Sapp hill without really losing too much concentration (or oxygen for that matter).

Needless to say, with working this week, vollunteering at scout camp, riding and trying to live my life, I am absolutely exhausted. K and I are getting ready to go to Ernies, in luie of riding my bike. More to come soon.
