a complete off-season

it has been a while since I last wrote anything on this site and for good reason.
I haven't done much of anything since returning from Italy in September.
Life has creeped in and taken hold. Pam (my wife) and I have been finishing off a second bedroom.
I shifted my focus on my work in order to save my position. My work involves
monitoring behaviors of folks with psychiatric disorders. wild stuff but also extremely time consuming. A nice distraction from grinding out the miles day after day.
I writing because I'll be heading down to the Olympic training Center in Chula Vista California in a couple of weeks and I need to get my head in the game. I assume this is one way. hopefully I get dropped by the rookies.
Starting Dec. 4 my training for next years world cup series begins.

thanks all for now.
