Haven’t been able to write for a while as I’ve been without the internet.

Labor day weekend three friends and I will be paddling around the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. It’s going to be nice to get away for a while.

In other news I’ve got an ‘09 Trek 1.5 on order that should be assembled and ready to go at the end of the week, and I’m pretty excited. It’s a decent bike.

I’ve been running lately trying to get my basic conditioning up and its going quite well. I’m essentially trying to prepare myself for Finlandia, a 50K XC Ski race that happens here in Bemidji (I believe there are also 25K and 100K races at this event). I figure the best I can do without some training equipment that I can’t afford is just get my cardiovascular system into shape and train skiing once the snow falls (in Bemidji that won’t be too long of a wait).
