Jordan's ALC Voyage

From June 3-9, 2012, I will be riding from San Francisco to Los Angeles to raise money for the LA Gay & Lesbian Center and the San Francisco AIDS Foundation.

I ride for two reasons. I first learned of the ALC during my on-going fitness journey, and thought it would be a great challenge. Then I started raising money and realized that my fitness journey had brought me here for a reason. It is time for me to make a difference, and help raise money for an important cause.

I ride to make a change in this world for the better. I ride because I can. I ride for those who can't.

Sunday Ride / Tuesday Run

Sunday, I rode 55 miles -- new PR for distance!  I started on the usual route towards Bonita, then turned off and followed Corral Canyon road UP to Eastlake.  And I do mean up -- 500 feet!  Brutal hill, but I conquered it!  First rest stop wasn't until 18 miles, so I know I'm gaining some stamina.  From there, I continued over a few more gentle hills down to Otay Lake, then across Olympic Parkway all the way out to the ocean, Harbor north to downtown (next rest stop) then up 5th through hillcrest and home.  What a great ride!

So I decided Monday should be a rest day... not Tuesday though.  I went out and ran 3.88 miles in just under 45 minutes.  A rather slow pace, but it turns out that's the key to me getting some longer distance runs in.  Uh oh... maybe that elusive 10k and half marathon aren't so elusive any more...
