It was just a great workout week. Everything felt good and I hammered away on all my routines. I am getting stronger with each workout. Completing the 5k was a big deal, and it gave me a sense of accomplishment. I got some more saddle time this week and that helps, but March 13th is approaching quickly and I need a lot more outdoor hours before my first race. Circuit races are brutally fast and it will be a chore just to hang on to the pack. I don’t care a bit about cold temperatures but all we have had is cold rain and snow. I am optimistic that the worst is behind us now and I can get in the saddle everyday and knock out some time.

The coolest part of the week has been intramurals; it’s in full swing at the College. I played in 5 full games this week, still hanging against the young boys and keeping my street credibility. Nothing worse than being 18 and having the 39 year old Dean of Students score on you or block a shot. It is actually a great release for me with the students, but also for my family. Becca is playing in the women’s division, and Cole helps out at every game. It’s just a lot of fun.

Keep working hard fellas.

I'm inspired by every post you make. This is great stuff. 5k's, intramural ball with the youngsters, cross training fitness...you are killing it! And I'm so happy to see the entire family involved. That's something I'm trying to do better this year. You help me keep that in focus.
