I've always wanted to learn to snowboard but its kind of tough when it never snows here. I do have friends that travel to Colorado to enjoy the sport on the weekends but that's all little above my means. As a family we have enjoyed wakeboarding at the local cable park and behind our boat. To me the sport of wakeboarding is a lot like triathlon training, it takes an obscene amount of practicing, countless hours of research and video training, all to go out and beat yourself up repeatedly. But its worth every bit of it when you finally nail the trick or flip that you have been working on for months. It is that same feeling of accomplishment when I crossed the finish line of my first sprint triathlon, it is that feeling of accomplishment that attracts me to both sports!

I posted a photo I took of my 16(then 14) year old son at the local cable park, its pretty amazing the things this kid can do on a board. I would have posted a picture of my self but all my wife would ever seem to catch with the camera would be my crashes. Come to think of it that may be because I crash more then I land.

Have fun this weekend and if it is a lot like wakeboarding like they say it is, its DEFINITLEY a full body workout!

Dennis, that Picture is AWESOME! I'm not big on tricks and definitely can't pull a flip.

I log my mountain time with Trace, formerly Alpine Replay. I'll find the link to my profile on there to share my mountain adventures.

Mark Z- Happy Birthday, congratulations you lost a heartbeat.

Thanks Jim! No wonder I'm walking more and more. I think Phil Maffetone eliminates competition this way. Never mind, I like walking.

Run/walk this morning. 2hrs. I guess it was about 20kms.

90 minutes on the drainer yesterday. Did Trainerroad - Antelope (5x10' at sweet spot power). Used their new iOS app. Worked well. One of the things I'm really liking about the Trainerroad training plan that I'm following is it is introducing me to a lot of workouts I otherwise never would have done. Antelope was tough and the fact that a target power level is graphically presented to you motivates you to work hard for each interval.

30 minutes in the pool at lunch today.

Long 13 mile run on Sunday at a very easy pace - all sub MAF. I have been reading a book about running with mindfulness and have been putting my meditation to good use during some longer training sessions. Can't say enough good things about practicing meditation and how it has been helping with improving my well being. Best explanation I can give (I am stealing this of course) is that - stillness is to mind as to exercise is to the body.

I have a question about exercising in cold weather: does it matter whether or not I keep my head covered?
Also, is it safe to bike in mud?
