Monday, July 13, 2009. Growing Stronger or the Start of a Coup? All of the hills that were there two months ago were STILL THERE. Amazing isn't it. They still kicked my butt as well! I told Tanya she won the polka dot jersey for the day (in the Tour ' de. Thankfully, we were safe and didn't have any negative bovine experiences except for having to slow for them. After those first 50 miles we refilled our water bottles and then headed out towards Belton. That's what hills will do! Century. Is it insan...

Sunday, August 2, 2009. Tearing up Texas.at least Tri'ing to do so! I'm a bad, bad blogger! But, rather than lament the fact that I've been a bad blogger, I will just jump right into it! What has kept me busy these past three weeks, by the numbers and events, here you go:. Week of 13-19 July. I LOVE THE FLATS!

Tuesday, September 1, 2009. It's allowed, right? I'm a poor blogger.but it's only cause I'm a busy Commander and Triathlete. Both keep me busy. Let me sum up the last two weeks:.

Pursuit: The Act of Striving: Getting close!
http://drivenpursuit.blogspot.com/2009/10/getting-close.html
Sunday, October 18, 2009. Hey look, it's only been 16 days this time since I blogged anything! When I hit solid taper, I intend to blog a little bit more. Three things have kept me busy: my job (command), Ironman training (of course), and grad school applications. The later takes more than I thought it would! Oh well, should be done soon and then it'll be the "sit and wait" to find out where I go. There will be more of that to come though, so enough talk on it! That 10-miler did, however, whoop my legs!

Friday, October 2, 2009. I'm not going to even throw out the apology this time. Obviously, life is crazy busy, and September was no exception. I actually had a couple of weeks of leave/vacation in September, but they were spent traveling to Oklahoma, racing the Oklahoma Redman. Traveling back to Texas, studying for the GRE. And taking the GRE. I did catch up on SOME sleep, but that's about the only thing that I caught up on in September. Training is going well and racing went excellent. In recap:. The we...

Sunday, August 16, 2009. What a week, in every aspect! A truly spectacular career of selfless service. Following that ceremony we all went to lunch together. The culminating event of the week, however, was a "professional development film," in other words, I took my senior leaders to go see "GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra." Seriously! I look forward to the next one, because it's OBVIOUS there will be a #2! S: 5100.00 Meters; 1h 53m. B: 169.81 Mi 9h 11m 03s. R: 4500 Mi; 6h 23m 22s. Links to this post. 02 Feb 0...

Supposing you have tried and failed again and again. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down.
