Foggy n' Groggy

and not the good grogg.....The past few days have been a daze of serious road tripping.  I don't recommend spending 22hrs within a 48 hr period driving around the NW.  As much as I like to drive, the accumulation of hrs logged in the car over the past couple of months has been a wee bit more than being able to enjoy the tug of the open road.
The most disruptive aspect of all the road tripping has been the change to sleep and trying to get back into the regular scheduled programming.  It takes extra energy to get motivated for training and unfortunately this is a key period to ramp up the base miles...ohh well, nothing like going into a 50 mile mountain bike event as a single-speeder knowing the legs could be in much better shape.  doh...double doh....and it will be DOH DOH DOH come race day on the Whiskey.

It is definitely Spring in Montana as it can be perfect temps one day and the next can be a reminder of how SW Montana can get snow just about anytime!  Last week we had significant snow up in the hills and some snow down in the valley.  Fortunately the ground is relatively warm so the snow melts pretty quickly if it even accumulates.
