A day in the life...

Since this is my blog, I 'spose it should be about me.
So, here is a day in the life of....ME.

Wake up
Espresso
Poo
Nordic Ski
Ski Coach
Espresso
Trainer
Stretch
Shower
Dinner
Sleep

This schedule, although incredibly busy has some amazing high points.
-Nordic Skiing before and while the sun comes up is a great experience.
-Nordic Skiing before the sun comes up can lad to Moose spottings.
-I get to drink a lot of espresso.
-I never get board.
-I am VERY ready for bed time at 8pm.

Birthday

Once upon a time, there was a girl.


Who had a bike.
It was the girl's 30th birthday and she wanted to take her bike somewhere new, somewhere special, somewhere she had always wanted to go on her bike.Up and up into the hills she went. The road twisted and turned.
She hoped to find gold in the mine tailing's, but instead, she found a reindeer and saved it from "middle of the road death".
After the bike ride, the girl was lucky enough to meet her Mom for lunch. Gluten Free pizza and espresso finished the day.

It's not so bad to be 30, thought the girl.

What's up?

For the few people who read this blog; sorry for not updating. After I called a halt to the Cross season, I stopped riding and stopped thinking about bikes.

So, the short answer as to what I've been up to the past few weeks is....nothing. It feels good to do nothing. But the short answer does not tell the entire story.

I have been busy. I have been working on my Coaching Business- ALP Cycles coaching- recruiting new athletes and working with current athletes. I have been ski coaching 13-14 year olds for the Eldora Mtn Ski Club, and, for the third time, I had gum surgery.

It has been a much needed break and, now, I am ready to work hard to make 2010 great!
