Good news! I didn't die!!!
I didn't die, or get hurt. I finished all 40 miles without walking the bike up any of the hills. I finished in 3 hours, 07 minutes, 02 seconds. I don't know where I finished in my age group, I didn't stay around for the awards, because I knew I wasn't 1, 2, or 3.
The Home Brew at teh end tasted oh so delicious!!!
But, I feel good today (relatively). Everything is sore, and I'm finally regaining feeling in my ass and nether-regions...
The Black Fly Challenge was true to its namesake. I was eaten alive!!! I counted over 80 bites when I got home last night. I look like I've got freakin' small pox or something.
And this story will entertain you all, I'm sure! I was listening to last weeks show in teh car on teh way up into the adirondacks, and had just listened to one of the breaks before I got there. So, for the entire race (I mean the ENTIRE 40 MILES) I had the Dirty Sanchez song stuck in a loop in my head.
"I want to give you a dirty sanchez, I want to throw you a donkey punch..."
Oh, and I'll post a picture later of me at the end of the race, with my BN Army shirt and homebrew in hand!!!
Thanks for the well wishes guys!!! I hope that all of you that went to the anniversary party fared at least as well as me!!!
EDIT: corrected finishing time
