So I suppose I should update???
Yeah, I know I haven’t been keeping up my blog, and I really have no excuse.
Just to get this one out of the way. I really don’t have much to say about all the doping scandals/junk going on with cycling right now. My only real comment is that is disgusts me. Enough said.
More about myself…see I’m selfish, why would I talk about doping when I can talk about myself…no really, here is a bit about what I have been up to.
I took few days off as you saw in my previous post. After that I hoped into a kermis and was told to sit in for an hour or so. It worked out that I got myself in the selection and did a little more racing than I had planned, but hey it was a nice way to come off of break. I kinda got worked over a little and didn’t have much left at the end anyway…so the result wasn’t anything that spectacular.
Since then I’ve had a few other races that have been slow steady improvements all around. Physically I am feeling really good, and for the first time in a long time…in fact maybe ever. I feel like I don’t exactly know where my limits are…good but kinda weird too. Maybe, I shouldn’t be saying this, but hey, I tell it how it is! So, now I got to put all that mental stuff together right? Then I should be rockin it! I’ll keep you posted on that, I promise.
The one not so great thing I have been dealing with is what seems to be some sort of residual stuff from the Belgian gut rot I had earlier in the year. It seems to come back for a day or a few hours here and there, and leaves for a touchy stomach all around. Something I am definitely not used to. Most recently it decided to visit me during a race. Let’s just say I couldn’t eat or drink for the first 2 hours or so and hit a point where I was seriously considering pulling off the road and yaking. After we started hitting all the cobbled climbs I started coming around a bit, forced down two bottles and finished the day decent but not great.
More personal details on or after the 4th…maybe even a 4th of July update…I’m sick of being selfish right now…I’m gona go read someone elses blog...
Oh, and can anyone tell me where to find some fireworks in Belgium?
