to the lottery for entering the Leadville 100 Mountain Bike Race. But just getting so far as to register for the lottery took an hour an a half on a jammed website. But I’m this far, and I have to treat it every day as if I’m doing the race. Let the serious training begin!
This morning: oatmeal and berries instead of the fat muffins/bread I’ve been eating for the holiday.
The race might put me in the hospital, knowing my propensity for broken bones and crashing and such–but as Shelby (Julia Roberts)in Steel Magnolias said, “I’d rather have thirty minutes of wonderful than a lifetime of nothin’ special.” Me, too. In this case, it’s 12 hours of wonderful agony rather than a lifetime of nothin’ special.
So let the training begin!
