It's Official...
I have entered the blogging world! It's taken some contemplation, but I have been wanting to keep a journal for some time now, for my training, riding, and other adventures. I know that it'll be easier for me to maintain a blog, put up photos, and share with friends rather than writing it down on paper.
You can expect that my blog will have my reflections on training--what works and doesn't for me, logs of rides we've done, and other random things.
So, here goes...
Today we are getting ready to head back to California after our 13-day trip back east. We had a great time visiting family and friends! It makes us both think about moving back some day. Not any time really soon...after all, we still have a lease and our jobs are good. I really like living in SoCal, but it's weird...the pull of the east coast is very strong. Of course, the fact that it's in the negative digits for temperature doesn't really make it very enticing but...
As far as training and exercise go, this trip has been a bust. Managed to stretch about 4 times and do one real day of my mt. bike workout. Pretty pitiful really. I also rode the trainer for an hour at Dan's brother's house. That was one day. Dan and I played a game of HORSE outside at my mom's house today. All in all, I am feeling very frustrated about the lack of exercise and training. Vision Quest (VQ) is coming up so soon! Eight more weekends left until the race.
I can't wait to get home so I can get back to my healthy diet and having control over my meals & getting back on track with training and working out.
