apologies...

for the complete lack of effort here. I've not felt the least bit inspired, insightful, observent, funny, or introspective.

Life feels like an unbelievable routine right now. I haven't been climbing really at all, Delaware Rock Gym has the most stagnant routes ever. I love having that place close, but I'm not inspired to climb at all when it just feels like I'm going through the motions.

I didn't ride at all this weekend, and now my crazy travel schedule begins. I'm worried about my fitness for cross.

I did have a blast in NYC on Friday night. Saw some good friends, met some new people at a party. That was a nice break in routine, but reminded me that there are a lot of people I don't see often enough.

I just finished putting together my Google Calendar and it's amazing how my year is pretty much planned out. Cross is quite a commitment, but I must say... I'm really looking forward to it. So long as I maintain some level of fitness for the next month and a half.
