Birthday week

I have been stewing over my race season. I would really like to do Wildflower except the cost and the logistics are rather difficult. So I was thinking of St. George? It would be easy to get there. Erik would have a great time because of all the mt biking. We know where good campgrounds are to stay. The course is hard and Art is maybe doing it too. Also, I would really like to go out to Wisconsin for a training camp in early summer/spring for at least a week so going to St.George would save me some vacation time. What do you think?
Kind of a crappy write up. It has been a busy week.

Training this week.

Tuesday- Gfit followed by a little run. Is it okay to run after? I know before is ideal to get a warm up, but is sometimes doesn't work out.

Wednesday- Trainer ride? Can't remember. I think Lisa came over and we rolled those wheels in place for a while. She left after ~45 minutes. Rolled for another 25 or so.

Thursday- Uggghhh. What a day. Made a giant blunder. One of those things that is going to stick with me for a long, long time. After work went over to the gym and ran and did the gfit workout. Met Lisa for some much needed wine and Broad Comedy- Learned a great new saying "Fuck that Shit". Sorry about the bad language. I wish I could apply that to my blunder this day.

Friday- Pretty proud of myself. Woke up early and rode the rollers in the garage. Listened to music and the hour went by pretty fast. Went to work and did the swim at lunch. Worked out pretty well to get workouts in and leave Bozeman by 5 for the weekend.

Saturday- Found a sweet hotspring. It was two miles up a canyon on a pretty not well trodden trail. Saw nobody the whole time. Hiked in and hiked out. Fun afternoon of exploring the North Fork of the Salmon River and finding the hotspring. Found some great roads for some future bike touring/riding. I think I should do some cross bike dirt riding in the spring. Got to get ready for the Speedwagon :).

Sunday- Found another sweet hotspring. Different from the day before but equally good. Got home from our little road trip and went on a run. 1:10 or so. Felt good. This dark weather makes it hard to motivate even at 5:00pm. Went to see Twilight with Lisa.

Monday- Going home to ride rollers and drink some champagne for my birthday. Went to lunch with my sister and mom. Mom bought me a new pair of running shoes. Sweet. Definitely on my list of needs for this year. Those old ones are going in the garbage. Big experiment tomorrow.
