Wow did the Trek boys put the hammer down on me today. I thought we were going out for this nice easy ride... and it started as such, until we hit this long, fairly steep uphill with a hint of tailwind... It was like the gun went off and the gates were open- they all took off sprinting up the hill with the exception of two and myself. I just wasn't expecting it and even so, I was riding a protype Klein today that was not shifting well to say the least. I think I had the use of 3 gears before it was about to self destruct. Good times. So there I was, along with the two other guys chasing the mass of testosterone for 18.75 miles at like 28mph (with a slight push of the wind) still not catching them. At least I got my workout in! Would have been really nice to have my bike though. Then I would have showed them!! - right. Good times though. Very much needed.

Otherwise, not much is new. I'm hoping to get out on a very easy 3 mile run tonight to test out the knee. Hopefully it's feeling better and there are no worries to come. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice again so I'm not sure what's in the game plan. I'm supposed to swim on Thursdays, and I most likely will but we'll see.

Oh yeah... I bought a triathlon training journal last night. Does that mean I actually have to start doing something?

Hope life is exciting for everyone. Happy training!
