Moab '09

Well, here I am, sitting in my family room, watching TV trying to keep warm. Colorado Springs has yet to have much of a snow storm, they usually have one early winter. I'm working on my school project and looking at the adventure race series for 2009 and I'm realizing its time to start getting into shape again. I have a horrible habit of getting lazy at the end of the summer and becoming a bit of a couch potato. Mind you, I'm not a super athlete or in the competitive athlete category, but for some reason I enjoy hurting myself ever year in the races. My buddy uses the term "Gluttons for Punishment" for his team name when he competes in various races, and I guess its true. No matter how shape you're in or in my case, not in, there seems to be a desire to push yourself and see what you can do, I guess it's a part of living. So my personal goal is to work harder in the off season to be ready for the race in '09, which means getting in shape now. Two years ago I started working hard in January for the race, but that still wasn't enough, so this year it needs to start now. Let's see how the season goes.
