Waited for the plumber and got some work done.

Messed around with the saddle position. Going to finally break down and get it fitted. It's too hard expending energy when you aren't fully comfortable.

I suppose I should do some running this week, but 10 days out from Ice Man, so it's bikes. Toying with an ultra next spring, but I am sure I will give up on it or get sick like the last two times. Tired of not racing though. I don't even care about the actual racing. I just need something to look forward to.

The boys have really been going after each other. Playing of course, but a decent amount of biting and near biting. Charlie put a good bruise on Sawyer's hand, which I can only assume is payback for always taking toys away from him.

Rainy and dreary, so on to the trainer. Not sure if I will get a short session this afternoon while the boys are over to their friend's or not. 8 days to race day. Excited and irritable. Kind of feels like the week leading into a marathon.

Still shopping around for a 50k. Just hard to commit to anything.

We went to Toledo to see Megan's brother and new baby. So small compared to our boys. I held him for a little while but was so anxious I couldn't do it. I used to hold both of our boys, but that was a long time now ago comparatively.
