It’s My Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and also the first day of the music festival craziness we call ACL. I had already put in a ton of hours at work this week so I didn’t feel bad at all about meeting up with Dianna for a morning birthday spin. It was supposed to be just the two of us but she ran into Glenn Kasin and invited him to ride along. He works with the Radio Shack team and so we got some interesting perspective on professional training regiments and also on InterBike, which he had just returned from.It was supposed to be an easy spin but I am not well and, again, found that I couldn’t breath and my heart rate skyrocketed quickly out of range. I made an appointment with the doctor for Monday so I can find out what’s going on.

Since I work very close to the festival grounds, most of my coworkers bailed before 2:00 so they wouldn’t get stuck in traffic. I did the same and had time to take care of the dogs before Brian got home to take me out for my Birthday. We went to The Grove since it’s not near downtown and it has good wine and food. We didn’t do the whole tell-everybody-its-my-birthday thing so desert was just desert and not a birthday cake slice.
