Another 100 mile ride on the plan today. I rode with Shelby's group for the first 50 and then it was just me and Marcel for the last 50. We started at the FloMo CAC. I could use the CAC as my aid station and special needs location. We rode from the CAC to Roanoke and back. I really tried to hold back and keep the pace slow and consistent. I needed to be very diligent about nutrition. I failed on that count last week. We stopped at a gas station in Roanoke and reloaded water bottles. I had to add a few miles before getting to the CAC. I ended up at 51. My wife suggested honey on both sided of my bread for my peanut butter and honey sandwich to make it more moist and easier to eat. Worked like a charm. Excellent. Using the CAC as an aid station was awesome. Reloaded all of my nutrition and carried on for the next 50. The heat and humidity was high for the last 20 miles but we kept the pace bearable into the wind. I stayed on schedule with eating and drinking. I only lost 1 pound for the day and felt much better at the end. This was a much better effort today.
