Suffer-o-rama

We did the Suffer-o-rama again last night and it is very good. Bernie, Tom, Bob and I started the day out early skiing at Elm Creek to beat the rush, it is the only snow in town. We skied for about 2.5 hours and it was fun. We did a short time trial and then recovered on the rest of the loop. Tom is a friend of ours that shows up for everything and is willing to try anything. I just met him this summer and am thrilled that he is a part of our group. It is awesome how many people in our group are game to try all this stuff!

We finished the day up at Trailhead Cycling and did a 2.5 hour spin session there. Bernie was there and Mary Beth, Pam and a guy from North Carolina. I couldn't understand a word he said. Nice guy but I can't speak North Carolina, I didn't know that. Mary Beth is impressive too! She started spinning with us this fall and comes almost every time. She says she can feel the difference and it is so great to have her enthusiasm there. I can definitely see her on a bike this spring!

We ended up at the bar with the owners of Trailhead and Jay showed up. Bernie explained our mission to them better than I ever could and they are ready to support us as a sponsor and that is VERY cool! I will have to get the details from Larry, Pam and Bernie later. I was talking to Jay about the holidays and family so I missed a lot of the conversation.

It is also very cool that they have invited us to spin at the shop. It is another way to keep our relationships growing throughout the winter. I cherish this group of friends so much and I believe that relationships are never neutral, they are either growing or declining and this helps to keep them growing! It is quite a gift that they are giving us, very very cool. Thanks Larry and Pam!

Oh and I ate well at the bar and my weight was down this morning!!
