I have been sulking all week because I have been stuck in bed coughing and blowing my nose while all of my friends have been running amalphi loops at 6am and doing three hour rides in PV. It is so frustrating being sick. I finally got myself back out there yesterday. I joined Stef for a ride and even got Brian to tag along. I barely made it up the first hill before I was uncontrollably coughing and shooting snot rockets as I was trying to grab my water bottle (I know you all appreciate that charming image). It is safe to assume that I only made one amalphi loop and had to head back to Brians to crash on the floor until I was forced into the shower so I could make it to work on time. Somehow I am supposed to join Nat, Todd and Brian tomorrow for a 3 hour PV ride followed by a 30 min run. I am a bit nervous but I am even more nervous about not getting a tough hilly ride in before Wildflower. I cannot believe Wildflower is only three weeks away! These races are sneaking up on me. Next thing I know the Ironman is going to be here. Oh well, day by day...right? I am looking forward to my tough ride this weekend followed by a lovely night of wine and TOM HANKS (sorry bri) at Hope Uncorked. The event is for the charity I finally decided I am going to raise money for this season. I will write an update on Sunday filling you in on all of the details.
