Here and Gone Again

That seems to be my theme for much of this year, eh? Well, my honey and I are leaving today for our honeymoon which means that this place will likely be barren for the next week and a half or so unless I can find an Internet cafe or unless access on the ship is affordable.

We’re taking off today on a Mediterranean cruise! We have a rather long flight with a long layover today, but will arrive in Barcelona sometime tomorrow afternoon. After spending a couple days there, we’ll board our ship which will take us to a bunch of different places along the Mediterranean coast. I’ve never been to Europe before, so it should be a great time! I’m definitely looking forward to some R&R with my first real vacation of the year!

So, happy training and racing to all of you while I’m gone. I’ll be back in a little over a week in a little worse shape than right now and most certainly with a few more pounds to lose. But when I return, I will be seriously ready to hit my diet hard and to get two more solid base blocks before Wisconsin. No more messing around on either of those fronts. It’s make it or break it time when I return!

  5. You’ll have a great time. They’ll soak you big time for Internet usage on the cruise, so stay off the Net and enjoy your beautiful wife’s company.

  6. Have a great time!!

    I agree with Hak, ignore the ship’s Internet and just get some R&R in.

  9. Chris- make sure you do daily laps around the deck to work off all that tasty food on the ship! ;-)

    Also- nice race report….dude, I thought I was bad being upset with a 19mph ave….you’re rocking 20-21 and you’re bummed!?! Let me bow down to your sand-bagging self!! ;-) Seriously, you are throwing down some solid splits there. Anytime you are 20+ on the bike it’s a good day.
