Just to be clear, this was a well earned showing. All those mornings for the last 4 months when you and I just said the heck with it, these guys were churning out miles in the dark at 5:30am. I’m only on my 4th cup of coffee when my phone chirps with the Twitter alert of their morning track workout. I was telling Nemo, the only time I've ever broken the tape at a race is Ironman. They re-raise the ribbon for every finisher. I have a feeling that may be the only one I ever get.
OK, enough “Hero Worship”. Congratulations to me too, I think I was the strongest looking guy on the stationary spinning bike this morning. If I wasn’t the strongest I was right there with MD. We did a Sunday morning 3 hour spinning session. Nothing too exciting except that MD had a hot chick sit next to him during 2nd spinning class. He was giddy about it until he that he had to smell perfume for the next 60 minutes.
We backed the spinning with 2 loops on the wooded trail at Highbanks. My legs were heavy but it was good to be getting over my head cold. I had the typical recovery breakfast. Eggs and egg whites, 7 Sprouted Grains Toast and a nap.
Rumor has it Daredevil planned to ride in the cold and wind yesterday afternoon. 30 degrees and high winds is too much for me. I dropped him a line to confirm his toughness but haven’t heard from him. Either he didn’t check email or….

Congrats guys! Great weekend! Also a congrats goes to Lizzy on the Counter for efforts and finish as part of a Relay Team this weekend, as well! By the way, there is nothing worse than having to sit next to someone in a gym that reeks of perfume (except maybe someone that reeks of cigarette smoke)!!
