Secret Blog

I got out and put a little spin on after lacrosse practice. I hit some hills on the spin and felt strong.

Jenny found out about my 'secret blog', and all the follows I have ;) I told her that I was going to write about this...

Anywho, I plan on re-cabling the bike tonight. The shifting and brakes still suck after the first (mud) race.

Life Strikes Again

Coming into another summer with the expectation of putting on a lot of miles has gone out the window. I am not throwing in the towel, but I am definitely going to have to restructure my training schedule. It seems that if you have any experience with lacrosse in this state, there are organizations that need you as a volunteer. For the third straight year, I am coaching lacrosse. The plan was to take this summer off, but unfortunately there hasn't been anyone to step up and take my job. Oh well, it could be worse...

I haven't been on the bike much, so I am a little concerned about the Afton race this weekend. I am excited and all signed up, and will just have to ride within my capabilities. In returning to racing last year, Afton was the race where I fell apart after the first climb and literally had to stop and catch my breath. I guess I can be happy that I am far from that former self, and that I can get out and enjoy a race with friends.
