Hard to believe...

that it is been almost a month since I competed in the 2009 edition of the Shamrock Marathon.

It is been a while since I had the chance to write anything.

Time gets away from you when you are having fun and Clot Buster Junior is starting to find the real use of this two legs... he is pulling up on things and just having a grand old time holding on to us as he is learning the way of the up right.

Since the marathon is well past it is time to start thinking about the summer and where I will be able to go to show off the STOP THE CLOT polka-dots. This afternoon I got to take polka-dots out for a nice 20+ Mile ride during the most beatiful day of the year so far. I am a sucker for 70 degree weather and nothing but blue skies.

There are some races I want to do as usual but this year I will have the chance to race as a team with my younger brother and wife in a race in early June. I still remmeber how much fun my brother would make of me for wearing the spandex and racing. Now he will be racing in our team and also he considering doing his very first, very own sprint triathlon as well. I very much look forward to see that materialize.

Slowly I am getting more time in my two wheels and doing some more swimming as well. I feel as if I am a long ways away from being ready but I am actually in very good shape thanks to the marathon training. However, I still need to get the biknig/running combination dialed in for this yaer.
For now I am working on the riding... 40+ Miles of riding between Friday and Saturday... not bad if you consider baby feedings and diaper changes. Mrs. Clot Buster and I make up a FANTASTIC Team that takes care of Junior without a hitch and gives us the chance to still do what we want in terms of working out.
Time to get to bed... Junior could wake up any moment so I need to catch some Zzzz's... yikes!

Thanks for reading,

The Clot Buster
