The past few weeks have been busy for me, with work and training and then of course sleeping. At work we needed to finish up a project that had to be done for the end of January which meant a bunch of 10hr days, not my favourite thing to do but the plus side is that for the next couple of weeks I am able to be off work at 1:30 pm and work 6hrs a day! This is a huge benefit for my training since it means more nap time and more sleep at night.

Trainign is going well. I just finished up a 3 week block and a recovery week and monday I start again with the build cycle. Today I also had a test type workout where I was to do a climb 2 times at max effort. The climb being Willis Point rd which took me 10:04 for the first time and 10:14 for the second. I have no idea if this is fast though since I have never heard of a time for it. Regardless I was going hard and had a good ride!
I also bought some new road shoes and pedals yesterday. the Pedals are the Shimano Ultegra Sl, which are pretty sweet and the shoes the Specialized comp. Its been awhile since I bought new road shoes but compared to my mtb shoes they are pretty amazing! I would definitely recomend a set of specialized shoes to anyone looking for new ones...
Tomorrow I have another 3hr mtb ride on the schedule and its of course going to be a good time. don't know the full ride route yet but thats allright!
I'll try and update this thing more now as the season is starting up!
