We are still training...
(we are doing run drills in the picture, Skip is in the middle, I am taking the picture)
It has been a really long time since I have written an entry and I apologize! For the first 2 weeks of our training Skip was traveling and we have been faithfully training since his return.

All is going well. I am 2 weeks away from running CIM (California International Marathon) so I have temporarily stopped doing anything other than my run training. I have trained pretty aggressively for this one (just like the old days) and hope for a relatively fast time. Hopefully the weather gods will cooperate and it will be a good day.

Skip has been working hard on getting his running legs back after avoiding that activity for several years. He is working up the mileage gradually with the bulk of his training on the bike right now.

Our team has added spin sessions at the Sports Basement Store in Walnut Creek and these are open to the public so if you have a bike and a trainer and you would like to give it a try - come on down! The sessions are every Tuesday evening at 6:30. If you don't think it is a good workout you will be surprised...notice the towel hanging on the aerobars? It is essential!
