What Have I Been Up To???

This past weekend I made a trip down to the land of Texas!! I got to hang out with Ami for 3 days, and it was amazing. She is a really special girl. I got to see the Texas A&M campus, it's Huge. She also knows a dam fine brew too.It sucked leaving her and sucked coming home knowing that I had to write three papers. Oh well got them done in good fashion. I have a math class that I'm going to drop because my math teacher sucks, at being a teacher and I have been putting bike ridding in front of the math lab. I will still have a full 12 credits yet it will free up a lot of time for focusing on my other classes.

I have been practicing barriers with Sarah Barber and Todd Meier at Cambles back park. It has made a huge difference with my confidence going into race season. Well the first cyclocross race, is this weekend at the Eagle Island Park. I'm feeling a little nervous about it still, being my first ever cross race. I started lifting weights again this week and all my leg muscles are a wreck. I have been stretching a lot on that has been hurting yet I think it also has been good for the recovery. I started a new diet as well this week for my nutrition class. It's the paleolithic diet, which is veggies fruits and lean meats. Yeah that's it no dairy no grains. I'm currently on day three and I am eating all day long because it's hard to pack in all the calories in those three types of food.

Next weekend is the Tamarak is having the Bike and Brews Cyclocross Festival. They say it's one wicked competition with a beer chaser. Yet I will not be drinking, which sucks but I really want to give this diet a real shot and see how my body reacts. I really want to be a lean mean cycling machine, more than I am now.
