TAKING TIME
THE COUNTDOWN TO AN 'A' RACE is always a little nerve racking. Time is simultaneously speeding up and slowing down. The taper period seems eternal, then...
... in the blink of an eye we are here.
We decided to drive to Nebraska for Gravel Nationals.
Yeah, it's a lot further than it looked when I asked Siri for directions.
Which meant it was no big deal to detour 20 minutes and see a friend in real life.
Marty is in our weekly Accountability group...
- owns Evergreeen Bike shop
- races Leadville religiously
- is a committed athlete
... I had to verify he was more than a talking head on Zoom.
What a treat to drop in and see him,
meet his lovely wife,
give hugs.
Just cool.
When it comes down to it,
it's not our race times that count...
... it's the good times along the way.
