Wow, Chris IS human!

Ok, Tuesday night so it was ride night. Justin was still studying for his engineer certification so it was just me and Chris tonight. So I was thinking that based on last Thursday night's ride (remember the 38 km/hr INTO the wind?) and Chris' epic 160 kms on the weekend that I was in for it tonight. We started out well enough, along 16th to York Durham and turned north. Our typical start to most of our rides. We headed north and maintained a bit slower than normal pace. Ok, Chris will pick it up soon. We reached Major Mackenzie and I thought "Ok, now. Chris is gonna go now". Nope. Up the hill leading to Elgin Mills. Ok, at the crest he'll go. Nada. Up to where York Durham merges with Hwy 5, to Stouffville Sideroad, Webb Rd. Still an easy pace. I started wondering if he was hurt, or maybe on a rest week. Then I figured ahhhhh, we'd get to Bloomington and then he'd crush me. Get me back for last Thursday's sprint that I pulled on him. Evil Chris, evil. So we reached Bloomington and Chris turned to me and said "well that was tough". The man is human after all. He then told me that He'd done a 9 mile run in the afternoon and got a bit dehydrated so he was still feeling the effects of the run. Hey wait a minute ..... 9 mile run in high heat and humidity, dehydration ..... and still out riding at a decent clip. Dammit he IS Superman!
