dubuque.

the setting: dubuque, ia. a warehouse downtown. the occasion? marge's 40th birthday party. neato. the band was great, the beer looked good (no tasting for me) and the warehouse was old, smelly and dirty...in other words, perfect. they really made that place look good (for an old warehouse). the best touch was all the old bikes available for riding around the huge space. all in all, a great night (although the drive home was kind of a bear) with a bunch of dorky bikers.

3hrs10min yesterday. i had intended on a brick but bagged the running portion. i feel like i strained my right leg and i don't want to push it this close to the race. the weird thing is that i felt lazy for doing it. 190 minutes of training and i felt lazy...i'm right on track for im 2006.

1 more week of the hard stuff, then it's taper time. wow, it's here already. seems like yesterday i was signing up thinking "i've got 6 months to train for this, that's so much time." i'm ready.

scotty and i are hitting the 24hr/9-mile as a duo 12 hour team. we may have a shot at the podi... plus, being done by 11pm sure beats riding through the night. now we can go out in the woods and harass others after we're done.
