More foot stuff . . .

Well, I'm losing track of the number of cortisone injections in my left heel and now the top of my foot (that's really fun!). I think today was 4 & 5. There is a bone on the top of my foot that is out and we can't pop it back in -- from all of my overcompensation. Oh this is fun!

I've been down and out -- of training the last couple weeks. I got on the bike last night and my heart rate shot waaaay up.

Someday I'll feel like an athlete again . . .

My second favorite photo from 2006 . . .

You may remember the old Wes Hobson commercial that shows him explaining how he prepares for the swim in a triathlon . . . he heads to the water and his buddies start beating the heck out of him with kayak paddles . . . well, here's my training secret! Conor delivers a nice elbow during the Kids Race in Lake Placid!
