240 some miles -Amy
Posted by ajmoreland | Filed under Uncategorized
Sitting on a train on our way to Manhattan-Aj, Ryan, and I. I’m letting the guys decide how we get there… Boys always like to handle the trips! Haha. After the 3 days of riding I’m not so sure I have the mindset to be able to navigate our way there.
I must say I have underestimated the ride. This has by far been the greatest mental and physical challenges in my life! I mean it took me 3 days to find the energy after the ride to blog something!
Today (Day 3) has by far been the toughest. l have a sore knee, sore hip, thigh, hammies, and bruises all over. I’m pretty sure that will be the case for all us EMS riders! But, even after all the lingering pain, I find myself smiling and happier than I’ve been on any event. The team work and comraderie is unbelieveable! There have been times were I have doubted myself wondering if I can pull off the rest of the ride. But just when I think that everything is bad, someone will come by and encourage me or check to see if I need anything. I’ve seen some people slam on their brakes and stop just to see if you are ok. I’ve never been a part of anything so special… I’m glad and proud to say I’m a part of EMS and the 2010 bike ride. Here’s to 4 more days of riding….
