this is steph with me and bobby skiing park city UT. a belated congrats to liv who will also be doing the walk down the aisle. she's a JMU'er and a fellow beach bum who i was lucky enough to meet while we shared quite possibly the craziest summer at fishbones (duck, nc).
after a really tough weekend of training, and by tough i mean a day off due to the fact that my body went on protest for lack of sleep over the course of the past week. my thoughts would not stray from dismounting the bike and lying on the side of the road for a long slumber. anyway, what a difference a few days at the beach can make, living la vida loca, or at least la vida normal. football season is not off to a good start at UT quite possibly played the worst game ever last night. worst as in the cheerleaders could have gotten more first downs. ugh. lets have some faith that ben and the steelers bring back some happy times to the start of their season!
on a more serious note, i've been reading bree wee's blog as most everyone in the tri world seems to do, (well worth it!) and its really inspiring to see how someone of her amazing ability deals with not one, not two, but three races (ironmans no less) that didnt end up the way she had hoped. to have her positive attitude and commitment to be at the hawaii IM race, cheering, not racing as she wanted really says alot. its something to remember that after the bike is racked and the shoes come off, what really counts is who is there to greet you and make your life good.
