Day 1: Checking out the sights on a bike is one of my favorite ways to see the world. Whether it’s your home town or a city half way around the world, like Jack said, it’s a treat to find things you would have never guessed were there. Had a bit of a chuckle because knowing when, where, what, and how to eat definitely takes some practice, but don’t worry EJ, everyone has messed that up before. If they say they haven’t, they’re lying. Day 2: Impromptu group rides like that are so fun. Makes the miles fly by. Love seeing EJ’s face during those last miles and when he finished. Is there any other way to do your first century?! And then getting super tired sitting in the confession chair was hilarious. Can’t count how many times I’ve done that and fallen asleep after a huge ride. Can’t wait for Part 2!

Last year did 2100 km / 21 day during company challenge and it was quite complicated in the end due fatigue from constant cycling itself and cycling alone everyday before and after work. You have a companion and i think it will be much easier for you to accomplish your goal) Have a nice rides during this epic journey!

As a former heavy person who lost a ton of weight cycling and now races as a cat 1, the biggest thing holding me back is likely diet. I love to eat, I don’t have the discipline I used to have when I was originally losing my 80 lbs, and I really struggle to get out of the “calorie deficit” mindset when I’m on the bike. I ask all my teammates and friends to keep my accountable and remind me to eat. Don’t diet on the bike. Not sure if this was also a bit of why you weren’t eating as much but just an insight. Love your journey and Jeff is a great guy, you’re in awesome hands.

I love the views and dedication! fwiw don't think you need to take both hands off to eat. I [usually] don't feel comfortable taking both hands off to eat either. Not because of handling exactly but because of narrow/non-existent road shoulders, traffic and random wind gusts. I tear the tops of my gels with my mouth and have gotten pretty good at rolling the wrapper with one hand.

Love seeing the whoop data. However, I don’t understand why there is such a wide discrepancy between Jackson and EJ. Jackson burned 1567 cal on Monday and EJ burned 4393. And they both did the same ride? Anyone know what I’m missing?
@Thom4aa4s Жыл бұрын
First of all the burned calories data is not really accurate and will depend of how much informations you have put in the app ( your resting HR, your weight, your FTP, ect...). Secondly, EJ is a pro and his HR is probably very low during those rides, (he is probably barely in zone 2 actually) this play a huge factor in your calories burned at the end of the day :)
@norcalfullraces Жыл бұрын
Jack is a pro and I’m not hahah that’s basically what it comes down to. His heart rate stays way lower than mine burning less calories 🙏
