A few things to note.
1. I have a three week break until school starts again
2. I’m trying desperately to get back into shape
3. I’m running out of dinero
Needless to say, I have ridiculous amounts of time at my fingertips and I’m certainly not used to such a luxury. I’m trying desperately hard to get back [...]

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 [...]

That’s professor Allan Franklin. He is a downright nutty cycling fan. On exams he names planets after the likes of Pantini, Armstrong, and Merckx. I don’t always get his teaching style or support his erasing skills, but the guy is funny and smart. But then again, he’s also the professor who refused to let me [...]

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 [...]

I asked Karen when I would be able to bike up hills/mountains this morning. She shrugged and gave me a casual, “You can now if you want”. I casually said, “Really? like how big of a mountain?”, trying to hide my rising hopes. We settled on Old Stage - a small hill/mountain just [...]

I’ve left you in the dark for some time now. My life has been somewhat rollercoastery and all over the place, but in the next few posts, I’ll try to catch you up.
My hip has been constantly improving over the last month. Most days I’ve been able to wake up and do something I wasn’t [...]

Or rides. Or whatever. The kids are all injured and my parents must be darned proud. You knows I gots the hip problem. But ye didn’t know my sister ran so much she got a fracture in her foot a month ago. Then my brother decided to rock a roundabout at thirty mph and blammo [...]
