Thirsty yet?

The moon was big and buttery this morning at five. It lit the sky like its celestial counterpart just starting to rise in the east. One of those magical mornings that put you in grateful mode. This is why we're here.

We are also here to work. And we did just that for 60 hard, intense minutes (one at a time) in the House of Mirth. I now journal my thoughts before the fixie ride into town for my weekly massage. Later this afternoon we'll knock out a 5K recovery run, the final effort into taper for Sunday's 12K Rhody Run. We'll have plenty of spinning and biking to keep the aerobic juices flowing between now and then.

We are also here to share and support. Here is the latest third party application for the CompuTrainer. It is called ctANT+ and is a wireless interface that "intercepts" low frequency signals to "redirect" them for use by other devices. In this case it eliminates the need for HR and cadence wires that have long been the bane of CT users.

We are also here to learn. Most of time this process begins with one of the myriad forms of communication. We hear: understand. See: Feel. Smell: Remember. Touch: Open. Sometimes it's a little harder, or more subtle than that. We need to interrupt dreams, undergo physical therapy, visit altered states, go see Max, meditate, chant, test our courage and stamina, rock n roll.

We are here to observe and do. Watch and go. Embrace the inspirational and move towards the motivational. Rate the response, adjust, fine-tune, tweak, polish and go again, faster, longer, higher, lighter.

Work.

Share.

Suport.

Learn.

Observe.

Inspire.

Motivate.

Do.

That's all, then you can have a beer.
