Humm

That's right...Humm. Go over to Edurance Meg's Blog she she'll explain it. The last couple weeks I've been rolling on some series "Humm" time. 9 day training streak and I'm starting to feel fit again. Far from fast but starting to live the endurance sport life again. Having snow around here in the winter definitely has helped out. 9 ski's in 14 days = serious "humm". Add in 3 bike rides and a Nordic ski race and you just added some "humm" icing on the cake.


Yeah...I did the Frosty 15km ski race last weekend. It was fun to get out and see everyone. Not so fun to be so out of it. Frustrating but at the same time motivating. I felt really good on Sunday and skied for 1.5hrs. I actually felt better on my skis than in the race? Oh, well..one of these years I'll train and ski to my abilities. For now I'll enjoy getting out when I can and try to keep the "humm" rolling.

All time favorite "humm" moment in recent memory would be an adventure tandem ride with my 6 yr old son this past summer. We parked the car and rode 7 miles to a lake and stripped down for a swim. We then rode back and latched onto 3 tri-geeks on aero bars. We were drafting them at 23 mph on our Mtb tandem. My son was loving it and the tri guys were amazed we could hang with them for around 4 miles. That was a serious "humm" moment. We had to celebrate after with some Coldstone Ice cream!

Maybe I'll start blogging on a regular basis again? and just maybe I'll start thinking about the 2010 Michigan Cup predictions in the next couple days?
