I have been remiss in updating. In my head I'm updating all the time. I just can't get it out of my head. Sorry.
Google has made some changes as well, and I need to examine them before I make a decision as to how I proceed.
The riding's been great, the training is 3 mos. ahead of schedule, thanks to 30 Days of Biking in April, and my adherence to attending all the PCSD TT practices I can handle.
Sadly, my road races will suffer, since the women on my team are incredibly faster than I am. So I figure I'll be off the back, working with a group who also can't keep up with the leaders. I'll be their erstwhile mentor and they'll pedal their guts out. Much easier to do when someone is cheering you on. (Ask me how I know.)
Had a very satisfactory result in last week's Dunlop Time Trial in Davis; 7th overall and 3rd in my category. New PR -- first time doing in on the Diva; in previous years this was a tandem race.
New PR in the PCSD on Wed. too. Nice to be 3 mos. ahead of last year's fitness.
Another TT practice on Wed. Not sure of the distance but I'll be there and ready to race.
Happy for the gains this spring...both on and off the bike.

I know this is a cliche' term to use but, "you're not getting older, you're getting better"!
