First ride since the HIM. Felt Great!!!

Thought about running this morning, but frick it's 43 degrees out. Didn't quite feel like busting out the long sleeves yet.

I had to laugh at the pictures from the half a couple of weeks ago. Here's me coming out of T1. It's a little wet:

Ow!

What a great vacation! And it came at just the right time. We had a nice cabin nestled into the side of a mountain in Glenwood Springs, CO. Great hiking right off the back porch. I got in some good altitude training on a great trail that ran right along the colorado river for 16 miles. We also whitewater rafted, golfed, and swam at the hot springs pool.

It's a little after midnight, but I'm back. I so thought I was going to have wireless out there but not so much. I'm gonna sleep, log workouts, and catch up with you all in BT land.

The plan was to wake up for a run before starting the drive back, but for some reason the night before my brother and I decided to try and finish off all of the alcohol that was left in the cabin. Bad idea.
