Training and Twittering

I'm obviously falling WAY behind in blogging. The summer's just keep getting busier and busier. Training has been going ok, I'm excited to be gearing up for my next race though - which will be the Atomic Man Half Ironman. A true test for how ready I will be come Ironman Time in November.

I have started twittering more, so if you want some more updates, please follow me here:

Awesome

Just got back from an amazing trail run. So amazing I did it twice! I wasn't exactly looking to do 12 or 13 miles but I thought something happened to one of my friends. Turns out he wanted a real adventure and wanted to see where another trail went. Anyway, during the run we started talking about Lance Armstrong. I personally don't (didn't) get it. Why would you come back? There is no upside. If you win - your Lance - that is what you do. If you lose, your another athlete who couldn't give it up. I don't think I need to name names here.

I put "didn't" above. Because I hadn't seen this commercial yet:

This is old school, but I love Will Smith, and this is a great message.
