House Warming

With a sad heart I must reveal that D-Train has bought a house. Never mind who would lend him the money, gone is the quaintness of his condo. It was a warm place where one could flush the toilet and grab a beer from the fridge with out leaving the couch. A few years ago, when he was tyring to show the place a open house consisted of standing in one place while turning around.

So if any of you peeps out there are free stop by. Oh...For you out of towners, North Mpls is the hood...The serous hood so bring booze and a stun gun.

Huh

Word on the street is smokin, eatin over 3000 cal's, drinking 5 nights a week and layin on the couch is not good training. Well god damn it we shall soon see..
My dumb ass has signed up for a few 100 mile off road point-to-point races and a 2nd go at the transrockies. First off is something called the Cohutta 100. It is on April 19 which I would like to point out is a tad over 2 mos away. Now to put this into perspective...I have 4 one-hour spin classes under my belt so far this year and I don't see many more in the future.

To set the scene here...It will be 5 degree's out this weekend and next weekend, There will be a major snow storm in March that will fuck up outdoor ridin, I have a growing nicotine habit to deal with, Beer tastes good...OK never mind that one, I am 30 lb heaver than I was in Aug., I will most likely quit the bike team I am on, my nutrition plan is "Fuck it I am eatin it", and well so what.

It will be interesting to see what happens to me, a guy in his mid thirties (oh damn, mid thirties? fuck me) who has seriously let himself go, when I hit the ultra endurance race scene.

Starting on April 19th I will be racing every weekend and as much as 3 times a week until the 4th of July. That’s 13 weeks in a row.

So let this be a lesson to you fuck sticks out there who think your bad ass cause you trained SOOOO hard and finished in the top spots.
Going into a race trained and finishing well is for pussies.
The one doin it out of shape and spending 2 to 3 times longer on the course is the true bad ass.

Back Bitchessss

Due to a lull at work, the possibility of increased membership, some complaints, the last night of Friday night broomball and a big drinking night ahead I might just write on this damn thing again.

You all will be proud of our little D-Train as he completed the Tough Guy race. He did well (top 90%) but got Mad Cow and is currently in the corner chewin on me new tubeless tires.

So god damn it we're back and just as drunk and fat as before. Although Jaminson does not cure mad cow disease it does make it a bit more interesting.
