Funniest thing i heard: “that bike doesn’t have a climbing gear..”
I borrowed the bike i rode 160+ miles in from Jsuh (thanks sooo much!!).
as i was making it up the hills on the first day, i noticed that everyone around me was not pedaling as hard (but pedaling faster).. I tried shifting to find the gear that they were on.. trying to match them pedal for pedal.. but my pedaling always seemed slower and harder..
At the next stop i flipped the bike over and tried to find what could be wrong.. but didn’t see anything out of order. So at EVERY hill i would be dying trying to get up the hill in this difficult gear.
It was only at the End of the race, when i mentioned that i had such a hard time with the hills, that someone mentioned that I actually did not have a “climbing gear”!!! As in a HILL climbing gear?!!? ugh..

Second funniest thing i heard: So i called sanghee while entering Austin to see where she was.. she said she was still a few minutes out, so i slowed down and waited to make sure she and the girls could see me finish. After i finish the race, sarah comes running up to me and says “What took you so long?!” “You were the last one to come!”
