I’m Ba-ack
I am using the awesome 4g internet card that I forgot when I got to ABQ. It's totally awesome. I'm coming back. I got a good 45 minute ride in on Saturday in NM. Saw the jaw surgeon today. I'm still fighting keeping my incision clean. Today he said if we can't do that while it closes up he would remove the plate. I would be open to that. The plate gets very, very cold. Brr. Bakaclava all the time probably when there is any kind of chill. The DR said 'no' not

12.15.2010 On a day like this
high of 76 degrees, my youngest has a fever. I had a ride scheduled at Twin Coves Park (not to mention all my clients). I will do my best to remember: "mandatory time off".

Running Pose 3
By running in a position of perfect balance, the runner wastes no energy in extraneous movements that only serve to correct balance. That is why it's imperative to spend so much time perfecting the running pose in the beginning. You must master the simplicity of the Running Pose before moving on to the intricacy of actually running.

Did I mention: I’m Ba-aack
:o I competed in my first Mountain Bike Race since Comfort of January 2010. It was AWESOME, it was fabulous. It was very scary Sunday morning because I was light headed, sick to my stomach and dizzy all morning while I was getting ready, as I got over to Northshore, via my route, my symptoms were getting worse. I was nervous, of course, that I would be to ill to race. I was sad. I cried to my friend Jen about how sad I get when to feeling this way. It's one
12.2.2010 Hmmm, Midnight and still Rolling
The most freakish part of that, is I never had my other 2 shots of espresso today. Now that is freakish. Today I rode for just over an hour, I'm racing on Sunday. I am registered, I have a babysitter, and I am developing large amounts of boogers and a cough. Is that a virus or is that a different kind of race, go peak and see. I did get most of NS done on SS. I love SS. I would like to ride 2 laps tomorrow. I have got to get my shock dialed
