I’m attempting to ride 1,000 km in August.

For context, my longest ride is 100 km. The next day, both tires decided they no longer believed in holding air, the chain came off, the pedals squeaked, and at one point my bike was accidentally picked up by a garbage truck. I also don’t currently own a bike.

I’m training for a half marathon, working full time, and eating an unreasonable number of bananas. This challenge is really an experiment to answer one question: is 1,000 km in a month actually attainable, or have I completely underestimated how finite time and legs are?

I genuinely have no idea if I’ll make it. That’s exactly why I’m doing it.

Feel free to follow along as I find out. And if you’d like to donate, you absolutely can… though considering I don’t even have a bike yet, who am I to ask? Cheering me on is more than enough.
