HHH 8/25/2012

The Hotter N Hell Hundred.  One of my favorite traditions!  This year the family added yet another HHH finisher.  Zach completed the full 100 miles after riding a bike a total of 3 times prior to the tour.  Holy Cow!  Nice job, Zach!  Now we can boast 5 family members have done this ride.  So cool!

lined up at the start.  25,000+ riders, ready to roll!

 I had a great ride this year.  I don't know if it was the new electrolyte drink or if it was just a good day, but my legs felt better than they ever have on a 100 mile ride.  It was awesome.  Also loved the new course that took us through the air force base.




We chilled in the shade for a while after the ride and talked about how blessed we are as a family.  It is so amazing that we have been given the opportunity to do things like this together.  We do not take them for granted!

 Sometimes sitting after such a strenuous workout is the worst thing you can do for your legs!  Pops had a hard time getting back up :)

 As always, the Burleson gang was there, too! 
 Faithful Nancy.  Always by my side for a long ride!
