I've mentioned before that my mom, now in her 60s recently took up running. She has completed a couple of marathons, and apparently finished first in her age division in the Fort Worth marathon.

Anyway, she has started to do the club time trial with my dad. It is 12.5 miles, there and back format.

Her times have been
time mph
57:00 13.15
48:00 15.62
47:47 15.69

So he is improving, LOL.

THe funniest part is that one of these rides, probably the first one, she got a cramp, got off her bike, and just laid down on the side of the road writhing. Because as the slowest, she starts first, so she gets passed by all the people that started later. Of course, almost all of them stop/ slow down to check on her, as she is laying in the road, screwing up the time trials of half the club members. LOL. I love it.

Mama Waters, watch out, in 4 months miking her will just be a fantasy.
