The week came to a close with a nice rest day. I’m finding that I prefer to start things off on Mondays and make Sunday the day entitled for the most rest. Getting in a nap before watching the game was great.  The card games just prior to bed time have been affecting my recovery recently so the nap was somewhat of a necessity. My grandparents have some friends visiting and 2500 has been the official game of the week. Unfortunately I never seem to have much luck with getting good cards…

There are many similarities to observe between retirees and college students. Both leave home and families behind for several months out of the year. They both prefer living in close-knit communities with others of similar age and interests. Both populations enjoy having seemingly few responsibilities and they both make attempts to maximize the fun in their daily schedules. The only stark difference is that retirees do all of this between the hours of 6am and 9pm while college students prefer the 11am until 2am shift. I’m sure I’ll learn more but the observations are fun to pick up on.

Another week lies ahead and my “training camp� will enter day 38 with some more Tempo riding. I just can’t get enough of it. If you haven’t found it yet, there is a race schedule further down this page, in the right column. Also the “Garage� page will give you the run down on the bike setups for the year. So far there’s just the road bike in there, but I’ll add to this page as time goes on.

Keep it Real, -TJ
