I’ve never downloaded a ringtone before, have you? Is it fun?

Ran 30 mins with my dog

Title says it all. I felt like crap, probably walked half of it. It was 28C. Went in the trails. I saw snow, but didn’t walk/run through any. It’s not too muddy back there either.

The Pro Tour is over?

Hmmm, I was surprised to see the Pro Tour for 2008 is over. Maybe its as pointless as everyone says it is, I didn’t even know it didn’t go into the fall and include races like Paris Tours and the Tour of Lombardy.

I guess cycling fans are now waiting to see if it will well and truly be over. Time will tell.

Oh, Valverde won ahead of Cunego.

Still managing to do nothing

The tour de beauce ended four days ago. I’m still in Quebec and have managed to do absolutely no exercise. It might be rough when I get back to Chelsea to get rolling again. I’m hanging out with Dwayner near Bromont. We have one more day of club stuff to get done and then I’ll head home.

Three days of nothing

fatman — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 02:14:28 +0000

In the last three days I’ve driven about 27 hrs. I’ve watched a lot of pretty intense exercising without actually doing any of my own. I hope that maybe tomorrow I can get motivated to get out and run or do some yoga. The problem is that we’ve had pretty early mornings, getting up and getting ready for the races at 5:30AM or 6AM. That leaves little time to actually exercise before the stages. And if you don’t do that, you kind of don’t get it done.

So three days, no activity.

On another note, things couldn’t have gone better for the club in stage one of the Tour de Beauce.

Lazy days

Today I woke up kinda un-motivated. I lounged around all day and started drinking beer at 2PM. Didn’t ride, didn’t run. Took a nap and watched movies.

My worst fears

fatman — Sat, 03 May 2008 16:39:45 +0000

Well I’m back from that trip to Georgia and my worst fears came true. Before I left I was afraid that uprooting my routine and being dumped into the me lee of the pro bike race would hurl my routine right into the shitter. And that is exactly what happened.

I left on April 17th. It’s now May 3. That’s 17 days. In those 17 days I did 3 things: I ran 2x and did yoga in the hotel room 1x. I don’t have any excuse. If you want to make something happen you do and I didn’t. Still a couple of days I did watch in envy as most of the directors on the bigger teams either get out for a run or a ride as soon as they get back to the race hotel from the stage. The reason they can do that is they have 6 staff: 3 soigneurs and 3 mechanics to take care of all the post stage stuff.

On top of this, I got home Monday night and its now Saturday and I’ve not done anything since getting home! I had to jump right into the deep end of project wrap up and a presentation for a consulting project I’m doing… and then, to be honest, the routine of exercising was broken so I’m back to square one to get rolling again.

On that note… I’m heading out for a run.
