Time to revitalize the blog?
Turning 30 in a month. James reminded me of my blog post about him when Jillian and I were down in Westport for the 4th.
James has a printed version, and I took some time to show it to Jillian along with some cool photos and news clippings James had of us in his scrapbook.
Still running, definitely slower these days. My 2012 self would laugh at me describing how much tougher it is to run 7 minute miles.
Still biking, but no longer on an old speeder, a 3 year old Specialized Allez that I picked up from Landry's bike shop in Allston. Clipped in. It's serving me pretty well.
I've done 60 miles/96km as my longest ride, and I've mixed in a couple 40 and 50 here in there. I'm not keen to do much longer, but we'll see. I thoroughly enjoy riding 20 at a fast clip.
Jillian and I have talked about going to France. My dream is to follow Le Tour - I'll write about my experience if I/we do go to follow.
Instead, we've talked about doing a road trip. It could be seen as a delayed honeymoon, but also a chance to rent some bikes and try climbing some of my favorite mountain stages that I've only see on TV.
Mont Ventoux, Alp D'huez, Galibier, Tourmalet... maybe even La Planche de belles filles.
Stay tuned.
