Still not recovered from the racing in the heat I sit here moments after a huge breakfast of two eggs and two potatoes. I just ran out of potatoes so I am happy to start reducing calories starting tomorrow. One would ask, "why does he want to lose calories?" I just received photos from friends at the race and I appear like this little fat troll, hovering over his bike like a fresh kill. I look gross and disgusting! How then, I wonder, did I get second place?
I am also exhausted because my friends just came to Missoula for a couple weeks and it is just too much for me to handle after all the job and financial stress. I feel worn out and 100 years old. I need a break. I plan to spend quality time with my visiting friends and just forget about mountain biking.
That sounds like a good argument but this morning I dream about going mountain biking. The spoils of the race this weekend was a first place for my friends and a second for myself while my friends girls got 3rd places. We took the loot!
So it is off to work where yesterdays laziness ensures a firing today or the worst case scenario, enough stress to kill off any hope of relaxation today.
