Sorry for not writing in a while. Here is the long overdue and sure to be unnoticed update of my blunders and exploits...
- I lost 40 dollars in penny slots- Very frustrating. I am just determined enough of a gambler to lose everything. I did drink heavily so that may have been a contributing factor.
- I went skydiving- It was a birthday present to my girlfriend, Caitlin. She loved it. I thought it was kind of boring relative to the fear festival that I had imagined. It was sort of like being in front of a giant fan after jumping off a car going 25 mph. Snooze... wake me up when we're on the ground and I can ask for a refund.
- I broke two hours in an olympic- My second time under that barrier and it was a legit course! I put together a phenomenal bike ride to get me in under 59 which was good for the third fastest ride of the day or so and gave me a cushion for the run. I came in at 1:58:30 after faltering in the back part of the 10k to run a 38 high. I haven't been truly happy with a performance since Ironman last year so it was really nice.
- I am now very overtrained- The above race ruined me and ever since then I have been sleeping a lot (10-14 hours a night). Any ideas on how to fight this other than rest would be nice to hear...
- I did a race across the state of Michigan. It was a running relay of about 290 miles. I will do a different post later to show you how wicked it was.
