The Sellwood Sprint
How do you spice up your lunch hour? How about with a little sweat! I have a new course to add to the list of Urban PR Challenges. This is a flat fast course. So get those horses ready to dodge some Rollerbladers and recumbent bikes, giddy up!
COURSE: Start-gate just past OMSI. End- intersection of Springwatter corridor and the road into oaksbottom park (right before the Sellwood Bridge).
GOAL: Ride as hard as you can sprinting from gate to gate.
LAPS:Must ride down and back because inevitably there will be wind in one direction. You can have up to 5 min rest between sprints, even though the con crosso ma-ch-ine only needed 3:30 today.
-Riding South (slight tail wind) 8:38:77
-Riding North (slight head wind) 8:52:01
Best of luck at all your personal records,
Hannah
