Updatage

Well its been a bit of time since I posted anything on here so I thought I would give a quick update.

Training stuffs:
I went to Wheelie Fun last night and got my professional bike fit done. All I can say is wow! I thought my coach Bob was going to do the fit but instead it was this really nice lady named Kathleen. She's learning the ways of bob and I was a good learning experience for her since she had never fit someone to a softride. She was a really neat lady who has done 14 yes count them 14 Ironmans! OMG!!! And 11 of them were on the big island! She has also won her age group at least once in Kona and that means she knows her stuff. She also did Florida so I got to talk to her a bit about that but since she makes her living by coaching triathletes for Ironman I tried to respect that and not be a nuisance. SO onto the fit. I really wish I had gotten the chance to take before and after pics b/c their is a quite a big difference. I thought my back was flat before but it was not and now its really flat. Both Kathleen and Bob were really excited with how well my fit turned out and how well it translated to my bike. w00t! And I have not spent a lot of time on the saddle yet but so far its so much more comfortable than it was before. SO what does all this mean???? It means im going to be able to go faster, longer, and with more comfort than I was before. SO im pretty jazzed. I still have not had time to talk with Bob about my training schedule and just feel a bit lost right now. I know I need to be doing more but im just not sure what. And my motivation has been sapped a bit lately. Hopefully that will turn around soon.

Life at home:
Life at home is good. I love my lisa so much and I love my kaiya bear too. Right now the girls are having a bit of a break from me and are in Boston with Sue and Sara. SO I have been a bit of a bachelor this week but miss them a lot and cant wait for them to get back.

Gaming:
Im a bit dissapointed as I thought I was going to get a lot of time to game this week but due to a deacons meeting on tuesday that just has not happened. Oh well I am still playing FF XII and will be for some time. I also picked up burnout again and have been enjoying that.

Well thats about all that worth mentioning.

cheers!

She's "learning the ways of bob"? Sounds a little New Age to me.

Good to hear some current stuff. Sounds interesting. Also neat to hear of Lisa and Kaiya in Boston. You guys get around, with or without a bike!

I think I agree with Sue re "the ways of bob..."
