Seneca 7

This past Sunday Alec and I, and 5 others (Olivia, Melanie, Joe, Amy, and Anna) did the Seneca 7 -- a running race with 7 team members 77.7 miles around Seneca Lake! There were 21 legs and each team member ran 3 legs and about 11 miles each. Alec and I decided to bring our bikes as well so we could ride in between our legs to get some biking in.

Unfortunately, during Alec's first running leg (he was runner 3!) his derailleur got bent in such a way that it got caught in his spokes when in the highest gear! What a drag! So we had to pack up his bike in the trunk for the remainder of the day.

But luckily I still got to keep riding! The other people on our team took my bike while I was running and a couple more to give me some rest, so I probably rode about 50 miles.

It was a great day,  and we all had fun! (and are definitely sore today!) We ended up finishing the 77.7 miles in almost exactly 12 hours, and at the finish there was chili, cornbread, juice, and other yummy things that tasted amazing after the long day!
