I know how you feel….I’m about ready to fire mine too(yep it’s me). Sometimes it’s just way too hard to stay motivated and it gets harder as you get older. I guess we crave comfort more as we get older. I’m 56 and found out that because of my stupidity and carelessness I’ve got some blocked coronary arteries. So now I have to eat properly and excercise. I hate "having" to do anything. But at least i still love bike riding. Keep up the good work and just except that you can only do what you can do. We all reach stages where we just can’t do what we did when we were younger. I have found that i can do things I never could before as well. Some interesting tradeoffs. Incidently I really love your journal keep writing and I’ll keep reading. I’m sure you’ll get popular now that you’re on the cyclingnews site.Jay

Instead of "No organized schedule", I prefer "Listening to your body" or "Flexible training regimen". You HAVE to get under nine hours next year, because reading your blog (and seeing you fly down Columbine while I’m pushing my bike up) is the closest I’ll ever get to sub-nine.
