I Got Nothin'

Alright turd burglars. I haven't blogged about anything interesting for a while, so why change now. This ones gonna be pretty boring.

Monday Brian and I had a productive (hard) cross practice. Doing hard intervals wrecks me for the next 24 hours. Every muscle in my body is fatigued, but I can never sleep, and when I do finally fall asleep its low-quality-wake-in-the-middle-of-the-night-soaking-wet-with-sweat-sleep. I usually feel pretty good the next day though. And I know it makes me faster. So what did I do today? More intervals. Slightly less intense, and inside on the trainer.

Its been pretty cold here lately, it even "snowed" here a little today. I haven't experienced temps in the 30's for a few years. I'm really excited about cross-country skiing. I've decided I'm going to race this winter. I know absolutely nothing about xc skis, let alone ski racing, so it should be pretty interesting.

Speaking of racing, Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! High flying monster truck action comes to Lapham Peak State Park! Witness robosaurus breathe fire and eat cars! You'll pay for the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge! No, silly, the next cross race is there. Its sponsored by some burrito place, so I better at least win a frickin' burrito.

Next year if I am in Minneapolis, Millwaukee, Rochester or Madison I am going to do a CX race with you guys. That would rule. I want to get skis too. I can ski alright but I have no aerobic capacity of course.

there are like 1 kilometer sprint races that you wouldn't need any level of fitness to do.
