That's a lot to keep track of, admittedly.

If you are like me with Facebook... you "like" a lot of stuff and messages can get buried in the news feed.  Twitter is fun but suffers the same issue as Facebook.

I find I get the most from email delivered goodness.  You can read it when you want to and it catches all the content.  You don't miss any posts when you were not looking.  So, if you want to follow what's going on and not miss out on a thing, I would subscribe to the email services.  I believe Feedburner will combine subscriptions and only update you once a day.  I could be wrong...

The big tickets items are:

• I Tri Because I Can blog posts
• Man Vs Triathlon site posts
• Monthly email newsletter
• Examiner.com subscription

If you hit those, you will be in the know!

The week that was

This week didn't play out the way I was wanting workout wise.  It's just been tough going getting out of bed in the AM to hit the training trail.  Snooze got me again this morning and the blankets were sooooo much more appealing than getting up and running 10+ miles.  So, I decided to try and postpone until after work.  Hopefully the weather cooperates.

I did get in some outdoor soccer last night.  Granted I played goalie so there's not much running but there was a lot of flopping around and "slide tackle" attempts.  It was nice to get in something different than running, riding or swimming.  Not to mention, the grass was nice and wet from the rain we have had the kast 3 days.  Wet ground + sliding around and diving on ground = mud and fun.

TRAINING
Need a long run and ride in this weekend.  Saturday WAS sunny and 70's, now scattered t-storms.  Boo.  We shall see how this plays out.

I've been better about my rides being focused on hills or sprints to get more than just "miles" in.  I've been focused on goals for my runs and now I;ve got training rides on track.  Hopefully this equals a stronger bike leg for IM KS.

BLOGS
New to the KC area is Mark.  He has a new blog going up.  Check him out, follow him, comment on him, harrass him, whatever floats your boat.  =)
