Cowboy Up!! And a bunch of other Shit!!

Wow, it's been a long time since I've blogged or ran. June has been a total waste. If this was in the middle of my training I'd be screwed, but since I don't need to start until next week I'm feeling okay with everything. I do feel like I am starting from scratch though and that pisses me off. It's like all that work was meaningless in someways! But if nothing else, I took off weight and gave myself some confidence to take on this endeavor.

One Up, One Down!! Good news to report, My friend Todd has committed to the endeavor. I'm jacked about this, he is a great friend and a terrific athlete. I'm really stoked to have him join the team. On, the other hand, I'd say Bib is all washed up, doesn't seem to be his year. It's getting too late for talk, it's time to put some miles in and after talking to him last week, I don't think he's up to it.

Physically, I haven't felt great all month, I've been nicked up with stupid little shit. Most of all my motivation has been a huge issue. I just haven't been able to get myself going. I know this has a lot to do with work, been absolutely buried there and will continue to be for a while.

So that's pretty much a recap since my last post. I did have a great fathers day, and I'm also another year older since my last post. So now I say it's time for me to "Cowboy Up". I need to pick up where I left off and get that kick ass feeling back. I know it will only take a run or two and I'll be back!

This has nothing to do with running but I'm going to bring it up anyway. Does anyone else feel like we are losing the battle to the losers of civilization. We are in a war on terror and Paris Hilton is the top news story? Are we as a country for fucking real? People are all worried about that blond bimbo, they are missing important issues. Do you know the legislature in Massachusetts just voted down the ballot initiative on same sex marriage. This wasn't a vote to allow or disallow it, this was a vote to put it on the ballot and let the voting public decide. The elected officials of that state felt those citizens who elected them weren't smart enough to vote on gay marriage. It's a fucking injustice. But the sad thing is people don't care, they are not talking about it, they are to worried about the Porn queens jail time. Hey , sorry I got political, I usually don't on this site, but I had some shit building up and needed a release, til next time...ross
