REST WEEK

As I pulled up my workout schedule for the week, I was very very happy to see the words "rest week" - lately it seems like I'm running around in circles trying to catch up, but that might just be because I haven't managed to finish La Dolce Vita and it's been in the DVD player for two weeks.

Got out on the bike Saturday for 2:14 of cold weather riding and was met by this guy:



He just went pro and was riding a team bike and we discussed riding and teams and cold weather and then he headed home and said he'd look me up. Apparently he won a race last year - beating out the likes of the team that won the Tour of California stage yesterday - as an amateur. Good on him.

As for me... rest week looks like:

In case you're wondering, I'm still eating too much and not losing much weight. Oh yay.
