cool runnings

The running has been going great lately..."knock on wood"...have invested in some new gear that has got me a bit excited about getting outside and enjoying the weather....

Have also been able to get out on the bike a lil bit as well...mostly rolling the CX bike...sometimes with a hefty 28 tire and sometimes with a cross knobby...built of  a new CX rig lately...fun stuff...pics will be forthcoming...

got up to around 50 degrees here today - giddy up - but man did I over-heat...I hate it when I have all the perfect clothing for the occasion back at home!! - spend all this dough on gear and then to not have it when you need it pisses me off...but better to hot that cold I suppose...I was over heating from about 20 minutes into the ride, but refused to turn around and fix the problem...;-)...might be 60's by tomorrow...

 again experimenting with posting from Garmin...something screwy with the HR in the first part of the ride...

Spring schedule...

...is taking shape...I have the Trail marathon the last weekend in April...here  - doing the entire weekend, 5 miler on Sat...then full mara on Sunday - fun stuff - prior to this, looking to do the Mill Creek Distance Classic in Y-town...and at $25 for what is the hilliest 1/2 marathon I have ever done it is some serious bang for the buck...so all these 1/2 mara's charging $70 and up drive me nuts...also looking to jump in this bike race...Barry - Roubaix - just hope it works out with a vaca I am working on around that time...and then in June I have the BSG 2011 - so there you have it - some of the highlights of the spring...

I am sure there will be some other training events in there as well to keep things interesting...also trying to fit in a training camp down to TN at some point...would like to make a big combo trip out of the Barry and then head to TN for some riding...we shall see how it all shakes out...
