The bike ride was hot, in the 90s, here in Nashville and it took me a little over 5 hours to get through it. What I didn't mention in my post was that the Monday before the 46 mile bike ride I was hit by a pick up truck during a training ride leading up to the race. It was a trying week to say the least but I am proud to say that I persevered and pushed through it and proved to myself that even getting run off the road and hit by a truck can't keep me down!

You are a true Ironman!
