SpringBreak....

In about 15 hours I will be on my way to NC for spring break! I finally finished the last bit of homework/examination-ing I had to do. Finished at about 1:15am. I want to punch procrastination in the face. I just want to go ride my bike and hopefully get strong again.

Last weekend at Mizzou sucked for me. Yup I did lose a lot of endurance. I still have my power, just no endurance. I got dropped both races. So I'm going to ride a shitload in NC and then take the next week completely off. Hopefully I'll be a little better after all of that...and then it should be warmer and we can ride outside again.

Ok well I'm going to head to bed. Gotta wake up really early because I haven't even packed yet and my stuff is being picked up at 9:30am....the same time that I have to be at the Rock Agency for an audition. Gah I need to memorize some lines....

Good Night!

RaceTime....

Alright...this weekend will be the first time since August that I'm racing my bike. It will be interesting. I think it'll be tough, but not horrible. I'll hurt, but it'll get my fitness going again. I'm probably not as strong as the field, but I'm still going to go out there and get some work done. If I can't get in a breakaway I'll try my best at getting one of my teammates to get the V.

Here's the race description for Mizzou. A 60 mile hilly road race to get the legs going again. Then Sunday is a nice technical crit. I have a feeling I'll do better in the crit than in the RR. But we'll just wait and see.

Then this week I hope to get my training up a little bit and then go all out and rip my legs off during Spring Break. Week off and then racing again. I think that'll be good enough to stay with the big boys.

I hope I can bring you a good report when I get back from this weekend....

MillerTime....

Well I'm doing 1000 times better. Sickness is pretty much gone...I just have the lingering cough/clearing of the throat that ends every cold. No more dizziness, no more fatigue. It just took about 5-6 days laying in bed doing absolutely nothing but sleeping and eating. Thank god its over...and just in time....

Thursday I finally got another modeling gig. Just fresh off my death virus I got a job with Miller Brewing. I was just an extra, but it was for a type of commercial. I just had to act like I was having a good time at a party. They put a Miller Chill in my hand and two beautiful girls next to me. "Have a good time"! That was pretty much it. I got paid to flirt and drink a beer. And the pay wasn't that bad either. And lets just say that models are very open about everything. It was a blast. I definitely want this to be my life and job. Well not just flirting and drinking beer...the modeling.

These next two weeks will be pretty busy. I need to do a couple intervals on the bike before my first race of the season next weekend in Mizzou. I can't wait to race....its been awhile. And then its Spring Break....

Ciao ciao....
