I think 2010 is going to be a turning point in my life. I can feel it. I can tell I'm on the verge of going into a new head space. After these past two days of Christmas celebration I also feel a much greater resolve to start living more healthy.It was a rough day for me, as I didn't get to bed until 3:30 am last night. I was hanging out with the family and playing pool with Reid and Alyssa's boyfriend Nazaire. Reid's actually getting much better at playing pool. He made some pretty impressive shots and even beat me and Nazaire once or twice.
I intentionally did no training today. I was scheduled to do a long ride but decided to take my coach's and Johan's advice and take the day off to rest my legs. Like Johan said, I've got lots of long rides coming up, better to rest now. I've now officially got 76 days until China and I need to get into a strict diet and rest routine if I'm going to have a shot at qualifying for Hawaii.
Tonight, Alice, Reid and I went to the movie Avatar. I normally don't like those kind of movies but I liked this one. Alice and Reid hated it. Alice was falling asleep during it and Reid kept counting down the time until we could leave. I thought it was so good I clapped at the end. The story line was okay, but what really got me was the special effects and how they came up with some of the animals. The entire time I was thinking "I can't believe one man had this movie in his head and was able to bring it to the screen". James Cameron is amazing.
Rest Day - No Training.

Glad you took the advice, you won't be sorry.
We also went to the movies. I wanted to watch Avatar but DJ wanted to see Alvin & Chipmunks 2. Obviously DJ wins everytime against me.
Told her she is to big for those movies now but she pointed out a lot of adults woyjout children? Didn't have a answer for her and struggled through the movie, would rather do 4hr on trainer.
enjoy the last bit of 2009
