Hiatus.
There’s been a slight change of plans.
After Tuscaloosa I got back into the training for a few days, but my body wanted nothing to do with it. Mentally I felt very ready to go, but my workouts have been hurting for the past few weeks, and I knew deep down it was time to pull the plug. I talked it over with Jordan and Sean, and then solidified the decision by not packing any workout clothes for our weeklong trip to the East Coast. It was glorious. The trip was awesome, but more on that and the BEST DAY EVER later. Now we’re back in Colorado, ski sales are picking up and we’re getting ready to move our office and warehouse to a new location in Golden. And oh yes, I’m still doing a whole lot of nothing when it comes to training. Walking Gulliver and tubing in Clear Creek are about as rigorous as it gets. Thursday will be two weeks completely off. I was getting worried because I have had no desire whatsoever to run/bike/swim…do anything. Today I had a slight desire to do something, but I’ll give it until I have the feeling where I’m going to go crazy if I don’t get out and do something. Luckily, there’s been lots of other stuff to do and Jordan is gearing up for his big comeback, so I’m living vicariously through him and a few others. For now.
The extent of my training. Though I did give my parents a lesson in flipturns...

Back in Golden: tubing fun with Jordan, Alexis, Matt, Cyrus, and Gulliver.
