Team in Training

I just came home from an amazing visit to see my brand new niece. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL BABY!!! She definitly has her aunties eyes!!! She is so precious. I am so happy for my brother and his wife. Wow shes is special. Love that girl!
It makes me so sad to know that I live so far away from my family and to know that it has been a choice that I made. I have been so lonely up here, and with Michails job not working out for him to come up here its even more of a trail for me. I am beginining to grow impatient and I really do not have my heart in California. I am seriously considering finding a job mid year at a school in Missouri. Visiting with my family made me realize how much I miss them. Don't get me wrong I love absoultly love the bay area. I love my job its my dream job. So how do I figure it out? On a much brighter note...
I am going to do it!!! I am doing the Team in Training! I dont know that I will be able to actually do 100 miles. But Im going to do my best and go as far as I can go. I am enjoying my bike, and I actually look forward to riding in the mornings. Im getting faster and I can feel myself becoming stronger... Granted dont get me wrong I am very overweight and I have a very long way to go, but its a start. I am going to work my hardest and well... The cycle thing is team in training. They train you to ride a 100 miles (deep deep breathe) While I am doing it ... I am to raise 2500 for Luekemia. My training starts in three weeks. However Im riding about 3 miles a day right now. By November 9 I will need to ride 10-15 and then move from there. By Dec 12 It will be 20 miles and Jan 40 - 50... Read More Feb. 50 - 80 and then in March the ride.
They have work out schedules and trainers and coaches to help along the way. I figure Its something to work for and the worst that can happen is that I am riding more than Ive ridden before and THere will be another ride to do that I can do much better. My goal will be just to do become healthy while helping raise money for a good cause.
