So since my knee is still acting up and we could not stand letting Central Park look at us Allen, Mo and I rented some bikes and rode around central park 3 times! I went to grab my garmin to track my heart and miles and realized it was dead so I had to use my iphone and Motion X GPS program to track it. It only lost GPS for about 1 mile on the last lap so it logged a total of 19.7 miles. It really kicked up butt on the uphills and made me realize how weak my legs really are and that could be the key problem to my knee problems. We still enjoyed every minute of it and I can't wait till I am healed up. :)

Today was my first official race ever! :) Since I knew I had a bummed knee I decided to take it easy today just so I could experience the joy! So I decided just to stay by my GF Jessi's side the whole race and give her moral support. She did awesome for not really training this year also. I can not wait till I get healed up and can try for a sub 2 hour 1/2. :)
