Wow! I'm slacking... And other news!

So I haven't posted since October?  Wow, that's awesome.  Let me explain what's been on in my life recently.  Lisa and I have been sick from mid-December until present day.  She's healthy (go Lisa!), but  I have a tiny chicken that's laying eggs in my brain and am SICK.  Seriously, I've been sick for over a month now and my training is suffering for it.

Why is my training suffering?  Well first off spinning requires you to be hunched over a bike, and really... That's a prime angle for brain leakage.  Gross I know, but it's a proven fact.  Science has written papers about it... Not scientists, SCIENCE.  Wow so I think I've become slightly strange due to medication.  

TRAINING!  Stay on topic here.  So my training has essentially been non-existent and I've decided to stay solo rather than take part in the Ride to Conquer Cancer training camp at RPM in the Junction.  I initially thought that it was a terrible decision, but with the amount of sickness that I've had this year, I've realized that I would have skipped so many classes that it wouldn't have been worth it.

I think I'm going to take a page from Libby's book and start posting stats related to heart rate etc once I get back into the game.  Only time will tell when that will finally be.

In other news, what's this I'm hearing about capcaisinoids having the power to reverse cancer?!  Where have I been during all of this??  Don't worry boys and girls, I'll have to post that again a little later on.  Interesting news for sure!  All the more reason to eat your spicy foods :)

Also I've managed to get my first donation of the year thanks to my old classmate Rachel :) She's a pretty big inspiration to me I've gotta say.  Triathlete and fellow Cervelo rider!  How cool is that?

See you at the finish line!
