With a bang and a whimper

My biggest training week of the year ended painfully on Saturday. I crashed 50 miles into a 112-mile ride.

But I'm generally OK. I think. My left arm is so sore from the landing that I can't lift it above the shoulder, so I can't swim right now, but I think the soreness will go away soon.

After the crash I got up, fixed my flat tire, and finished the ride. I was miserable. But I finished.

Details to come.

But the important thing is you FINISHED!!!

Ouch! Hope you heal up quickly. If you had to crash though you timed it perfectly-plenty of time to recover before your race but after you got all your heavy training in.

Ooooooh...my sympathy. Did you suffer bad road rash? I HATE road rash. I take it a flat caused the spill? Ouch. Well, clean up, drink up, and heal quickly!!
