He Finished It!

Layne did great today with his bike ride. We were there at the finish line. He rode the whole distance! When I asked him if his legs were sore, he shook his head and pointed to his shoulders, neck, head, and arms. I guess I didn't think about that being an issue. His legs got plenty of use today. He mentioned later that he felt like his back end was going to fall off. (Charming, right?)
I was glad Patrick was kind enough to ride with him. He's been working with Layne as a personal trainer at Huntsman. He's good at what he does. He knows what he's doing professionally - he also has great skill in working with people and motivating them. He and Layne have become friends (big surprise). (Layne is great about learning people's names and making conversation. He's on a first name basis with just about everyone that helps him at Huntsman. He even knows hobbies/interests of a few of them.)
Layne made it through the bike ride - and, as expected came home to doing just about nothing for the rest of the day. We'll see how well he can move tomorrow. He might be a bit sore. We're proud of him. Not sure what's next.
One last thought...he did have a glitch while he was riding. He ended up getting a nail in one of his tires. He said it took him about 15 miles or so to figure out what the noise was...it would hit the frame of the bike every time the wheel turned around. It obviously got taken care of and he was able to move on. Go Layne. Go Team Williams!
