*** I wrote this on Monday – and forgot to post it, Ooops – absent mindedness strikes again!***
To be honest, I didn’t even know that moose existed in Colorado. I was driving down a 4WD road looking for some good camping west of Boulder when I spotted the sucker about 20 yards ahead of me.
“Oh, [...]

To be honest, from Tuesday when I found out about the race all the way to Sunday morning I had some serious trouble sleeping. I couldn’t take a nap without thinking of the race, and I couldn’t take a ride because I had midterms that l considered far more important. A nasty catch-22, but somehow [...]

John, Sarah, Kristen, Meggie, Danielle, Michelle, Trevor, Danielle 2 and I rolled out to Moab on Friday in search of adventure. And sure enough, that is what we found. Arriving at our camp site around midnight, we quickly constructed camp under the cover of darkness and got to sleep. Awaking to light rain, we slept [...]

MOAB2k7 is happening this weekend. Last time I was there, I was with my brother and Pat doing an adventure race, where we failed miserably (that’s us in a kayak, and we’re not in first place) but managed to have a whole weekend of fun.
This weekend will be a bit different. No mountain biking allowed, [...]

I took to a new trail yesterday. I found a comfortable pace and ascended Green Mountain just like the good ol’ days. I know I’ve mentioned before that I like to run because it helps me think and yesterday was no different. A sea of change has swept over me in the past year. I [...]

I’ve been running on the same trail for the past month, every time I run, that’s where I go. It’s been a task enduring the monotony, but a necessary evil so that I can judge whether my hip is improving/healing or not (more distance, less pain, blah blah). Last week Karen suggested I seek out [...]

My hip still seems to be the focus of my universe. I’ve spoken with all sorts of other hippies over the last five months. Many who have the same issue I HAD, a few doubters, some revelers, and some that were simply curious.
In fact, I was at the top of Pikes Peak on Saturday [...]

So I started watching The Science of Sleep (a movie) at my house with two people. One I knew, one I didn’t. The movie was partly in French. I’m reading the subtitles when g-funk reaches over, grabs the remote and jacks the volume up to 50. Hmmm, he clearly didn’t understand French, and last time [...]

For many months I have often stared at my ceiling, the sky, a computer screen or a book wondering the exact same thing. What is wrong with me? I’ve tried two rounds of physical therapy, yoga, running lightly, biking slowly, pilates, stretching, and core strengthening all to no avail. Last Tuesday my doctor thought [...]

My buddy Rick has asked me several times throughout the years, “Ryan, Do you associate smells or scents with particular events in your life?” And I usally say, “Nope”. Because I can’t really say that I do. Then I sit there and wish that I could, because that seems pretty damned neat.
Well last night [...]
