To survive Ragbrai is to truly test your physical endurance as a real cyclist. For a week straight riders are expected to pedal an average of 67 miles ‘a day, under the scorching Midwest sun. Not to be out done by a heavily armed nightly drinking schedule of events include keg stands and drinking games, known only as “The Beer Olympics”. Secretly; my goal is to not complain and willingly join my girlfriend at her brothers wedding in Iowa City, Iowa (flying in from Tampa, Florida) only sneak away first thing June 20th across the state of Iowa to join my friends in the previously listed party, known as Ragbrai…

I’ve reach a personal best run time of 19:57 during a 5k race. I’m happy with it and I’m calling it in as “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED”

(originaly running a 22min. 5k)
