I just got back from an outdoor run here in crappy new england cuz it's like 45' and sunny! I did a 5k in about 27 minutes, which is good for me b/c A) i have not been doing anything more than putzing around on the treadmill for the last few months, and 2) I have barely been putzing around on the treadmill at all since November.
Also, at my first tri two years ago my 5k time was 32 minutes. So I knocked 5 minutes off without trying. If I can get down to 25 minutes or under I will be happy cuz that would be about 8 minute miles.
Weather for the next 6 days is supposed to be nice, so I am going to hit the road. YEAH!!!
Some of you oldsters out there might remember this one by Jah Wobble - it sums up how I've been feeling all in all this new year:
I'm not numbed out anymore
no longer filled with hate and pain
no longer drenched in shame
I'm not numbed out anymore
now I have the key to the door.
the kingdom of heaven lies inside
makes a circle with the turning tide
now the circle is complete
and the heart and mind they meet
the kingdom of heaven lies inside
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endless
It's a vision for me and for you
hell can be a circle too
with pentration unbroken
the truth remains unspoken
a vision for me and for you
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly

Yeah, I have thought about it. It is was kinda depressing to be in the military and have everyone think that everyone does the same shit. Also, that just because we kill people (sometimes), people think that is what we want to do. Most people do not want that, but it is not an option for them...
Blah blah blah...
The photos are great (i need to get some more of them up) but I do not think that I want to have them published. I am greedy and they are mine
Back to the fun stuff....
I rode around for about two hours. I seem to like trails that go only uphill
Sometimes I run trails and end up doing the same shit. Last week I took a side trail that ended up goiung another 6 miles farther than I had slated for the day... In one word: WHOOPED ASS 12 MILE DAY.
I love that shit...
My bike is a heavy ass POS Gary Fisher 2001 Tarpon model. It's steel, has a baby front fork that may as well not be on there and NO rear suspension.
I can ride what most of the other guys are riding, I am just a bit more slower on the downhills when it's technical.
Blah blah blah... I run my mouth like crazy
OK... Gotta get ready for tonight, heat up dinner, pick up the girl, get dressed, drink water, and take a shower...
NOT in that order
Later,
