Time flies – it feels like just yesterday we were in Zion, and now here I am, diving into a new training plan for 2012. The season’s looking packed and exciting. Kicking off with a 50K skate ski race and some snow bike races, including a 24-hour one. Then there’s the usual mix of an adventure race, cross country mountain bike races, and those 24-hour races I’m keen on defending. Plus, I might add a couple of 100-mile races and possibly the Devils Backbone run.
I began my training last night with some core exercises, which honestly left me feeling more like an old man than a racer. It’s like being an old tree, shedding its crusty leaves, ready to grow anew come spring.
This weekend, my plan is to get some skate skiing in. Then, I’m off to Billings to surprise my mom for her birthday by cooking dinner (and she’s none the wiser since she’s not on the internet. Let’s keep it that way – no spoilers, please, or you’ll face consequences worse than any pain you’ve known… but don’t worry, you’ll live).
