Ahh, the rest day....




Well, I have been training since January and have rolled up over 2,000 miles, but today's entry is the first of its kind. Today I am posting the fact that I am taking a rest day. Why, you may ask? Well, since the training has been strenuous and frequent for months as we near event day I need to be more mindful of the rigors my body has faced. What does this mean? Well, it basically means when the body says "I'm tired" I actually listen now. Nonetheless, I will still be on the bike four times this week for nearly 200 miles, but Monday will not add to that total. However, what I will add are some photos to kind of celebrate relaxation (or at least as close to it as I understand).

The first shot is of me at the start of training. The second picture was taken last weekend with my TNT team on Skyline Drive in the Oakland hills. The third photo is a view from Mount Diablo taken during training.
