With 7 days before yet another race that caters to flat power riders (which a climber like me doesn't have a chance in hell of winning), the Stunt Double and I tackled one of our lower-elevation specialties near town.
I knew I was in trouble when he showed up dawning his custom-sublimated stars n' stripes jersey....I was right. I could barely shake him after almost 4 hours in the saddle.
It occurred to me as I was scrolling through my heart rate monitor data that since I got it in October 2004, I've burned approximately 618,305 calories. That's almost the equivilant of two-thousand McD's Filet O' Fish's, or nearly eight-thousand cocktail olives. Or eight-thousand five hundred and ninety-one Snickers fun size candy bars. I could have heated 1145 grams of water to a boil with that calorie content.
And so I went downstairs and ate a burrito as big as my ass. Bon appetit~
