Kidnapped by Facebook

Where o' where have I been?

Me and some 10million others have been swept up by Facebook.

Have I been busy, keeping up w/ or improving my training?

Hell to the yeah!

At this point I feel at least twice as fit, in terms of strength and cardio conditioning, than at this time last year. Swimming, biking, running, lifting - check, check, check, check. All disciplines are fully adopted in my weekly routines and I'm seeing great gains in my 2 weakest areas, swimming and biking. PLUS, I've added a ton of cross-training stuff that has allowed me to have some serious fun and break up what can be an endless grind of just getting in the mileage. Extreme hikes/trail running, snowshoeing, and skiing have helped this offseason fly by. Even better is it's helped to carry last year's fitness gains into this season's training and what I hope to be a great race year.

On tap so far,
The Platte River 1/2 Marathon - April 5th 2009
Xterra Buffalo Creek Triathlon (Olympic) - June 20th 2009
Xterra Beaver Creek Triathlon (Almost Olympic) - July 18th 2009
Xterra Indian Peaks Triathlon (Sprint) - August 1st 2009
Pikes Peak Ascent 1/2 Marathon - August 15th 2009

The adrenaline is flowing full steam just thinking about it.

This year's gonna ROCK!

Gotta go update my FB status ;-)
