Just finished an awesome recovery week, in the Virgin Islands, cruisin' to celebrate Joanie and Jerry's 50th!  Lil' running, lil' spinning, open water swimming (snorkeling), great way to recover!  Too much eatin', tho.  I know how to fix that.


Tried to post the route last time...epic fail.  Still trying.  Computer idgit here.  Here's what I can say:  Georgia State Bicycle Route 35, March To The Sea.  Sherman's path from Atl to Savannah is a historic bike route, too.  Tying in Lake Lanier through Dacula to Monroe to the route, rolling to Savannah, and through the historic downtown (Liberty or Oglethorpe still to be decided), and then one long, open (ie hot & windy) stretch to the beach.


Excited to have Fleet Feet Sports, http://www.fleetfeetjohnscreek.com/, and PT-Solutions, http://pt-solutions.us/, helping out with products and services for this journey.  Both of these places have been staples in my training and I wouldn't be getting to the start line without them, much less finishing.


Friends and family have been great.  The drivers are going to have it as tough as I will, can you imagine....one car will be scouting the route ahead (TomTom GPS) and the support car and I will be chasing it, albeit, very slowly!  So, 2 cars rolling using at least 3 peeps, so 1 can chill or sleep or whatever.  Ans says she can make the whole trip, journalling with pics and an occasional video.  BTW, I'll try to add a quick vid tonight, she wants to practice.  


Just finished a nice 4hr ride, first half was solo and steady, then hooked up with my group, Frazier Cycling http://www.fraziercycling.com/, for the second half.  WHAT A DIFFERENCE have a group makes.  A pace that is a grind when you're by yourself is so much easier and enjoyable when you have 10 riders blocking the wind for ya.  Think I could get the group to carry me the whole way?!


So, now, breakfast, cut/edge grass, run, help E clean the cars, then a short and hard brick.  Check in with you tonight!
