		<description><![CDATA[Ironman St. George was the most challenging race for me yet. It was also the most fair race I&#8217;ve ever seen and the race I&#8217;m most eager to do again (excluding Kona, for obvious reasons!).  This is a hard course, and if you chose to do it in the future, don&#8217;t expect to set any [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know it&#8217;s been a while since my last post. Here is my attempt at a lame excuse: Graduate school is not undergraduate school. It&#8217;s a lot more time consuming then I had expected. I read and write a lot for school. So much that at the end of the day, the last thing I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First Off - Special Thanks to Marty, Linda, Dave and Lalita. I&#8217;m so glad you were all in Hawaii with me.
So I know this is very late. Let me try to offer up an excuse. I missed my second week of graduate school to race at Hawaii and PAID FOR IT when I returned. Life [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pictures tomorrow&#8230;
I have a long series of flights to take me from Louisville to Portland, so I&#8217;m going back to the beginning. If you just want to read about my race, scroll down. I&#8217;ve written all this before, but I&#8217;ve just reached what feels like a crossroads, or better yet, a broken barrier, and I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just wrote a kick ass blog, it took me about 2.5 hours.  It included a course overview, and my plan for race execution.  Then my fat fingers deleted it.   A common theme for me with the digital age.  So instead, I will just assure everyone that all is well, I&#8217;m prepared and confident in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The goal today was a two hour run.  90 minutes steady and smooth, 30 minutes at tempo.  I don&#8217;t know the area well enough by foot to know any good routes, so I just went exploring.

It made for some inconsistent pacing, as I was stopping at lights, turning around, getting lost, etc.  But I am [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I found a tri/bike shop in Corvallis.  &#8220;Northwest Multisport&#8221; had a surprisingly nice setup and a good selection of bikes and gear for this sleepy town.  I met the owner, Gordo, and he set me up with directions for a 2.5 hour trip.

I loved the ride.  Rolling hills and then a flat section through [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Before I disappeared, (more on that later), I made a new investment.  I am now the proud owner of a loaded Lynskey R330.
I purchased my last road bike right when I moved to San Diego two years ago.  The Felt&#8217;s purpose at first was to get my rear end back and forth to work (up [...]]]></description>
