Tomorrow could be the first race of the season. If it is, it won’t be pretty. I’ve just gotten down south and in a distraction free environment. In my second ride over 3h since IM Canada (that’s in August if you’re counting). I tried a few efforts to open the legs up this morning.

Happy Holidays.
I hope that everyone is having a great time regardless of your beliefs.
Remember that the spirit is joy and happiness – not stress and debt. Even if Americans spend more on Christmas gifts than the military costs for the entire year… have FUN.

Like every other clown on the internet, I thought that I would chip (get it ha-ha) in my 2 cents on Tiger Woods situation. Today I’m almost caught up on things, and got around googling Tiger. As even my parents have heard about this I’m assuming you have as well.
Down in Florida I’ve ridden past his house a few times, but to clarify, that gives me NO insight what-so-ever.
Anytime something like this comes to light, there are always fake confessions.
What makes this different?

Dunkeld – World Class Triathlete and Cyclist Nathaniel “Nat” Faulkner will be the guest speaker at the year-end banquet for the Saugeen Triathlon Club at the Dunkeld Restaurant on Sunday, November 29th.

This past week I have been hanging out with my Dad while my mother has had a chance to enjoy her first ‘care-giver’ break in 16 months. After our trip to Stratford, we briefly stopped in KW to trick-or-treat with my nice, unpacked Mother and then eventually headed back to Bracebridge. After 5 days with her granddaughter (what more could a Grammie want?) mom has been entertaining us with stories of little Natalie, and contrasting it to my own youth.

A month ago, when racing was going badly I was thinking to myself… well at least I will be free this fall to get in a canoe trip up in Algonquin Park. It’s been 4 falls now since I was in the area and had free time in the fall. Now the trees are changing color, and the bugs have died off, it truly is one of the greatest places on the planet.
My first dilemma was finding a person with canoe experience and free time to head out with. Then I remembered that my friend SMAK (HUGE thanks for Tak) had dragon boating experience and a half cocked plan was launched.

I took this picture by accident today. It’s ’snowflake the dog – she’s 12 and acts like she’s 6 (Mom says 4). So we get along well.
Most of the weekend I was packing up sold items from the pile of things I e-bayed for Cam. That ended in a 8km TT to the post office to mail them before closing, and 8km tt back. After that I decided to put my shoes on and go for a 8km run. The loop has a lot of technical off road, which isn’t really fast, and everything else seems to be uphill.
Here is a story that I started last November. It’s been in the draft bin for a while, now, and I thought that I’d finish it off.
I am very sad that there will be no Maui for me in 2009. I loved Maui.
