Wouldn't that be something, going back to work for Morris Communications again. I'm certainly not against it. Community newspapers are something I'm passionate about, and may be the only newspapers to survive the all-but-inevitable meltdown of the coming decade. But I try not to be a pessimist. I do hope the publishing industry will sort itself out and I'll be able to make my way back to the newspaper biz someday, sans 60-hour workweeks and mass layoffs.<br /><br />Beat is intrigued by Alaska, too. It will be a few years at least, but I have a hunch we'll make our way to the Great Land eventually.Jill Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02983065990450931943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-6542527463327392232011-08-03T19:09:26.145-06:002011-08-03T19:09:26.145-06:00Alaska, Alaska, Alaska!

One can dream.<br /><br />El Animal, I think you're right. I must of scared off most of my cycling readers long ago. Beat's bike is a Specialized S-Works Roubaix, the sexiest bike in our stable. It's so nice I'm almost to too scared to ride it, but I did borrow it once. It almost pedals itself uphill. Definitely an awesome road bike.Jill Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02983065990450931943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-20820434042360804242011-08-03T13:15:09.013-06:002011-08-03T13:15:09.013-06:00You are probably writing too much about running.

As you know, training runs have value whether or not they go as planned. Sounds like you've been letting the post-race malaise get the best of you, but that you're seeing the end of it? Come visit. I have great options for you the next three weekends (13th (Logan to Goat Haunt), 20th (Floral Park (off trail)), 27th-28th (Keith and Leslie are coming and we are backpacking)).Dannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201053516148787578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-61794557536284271292011-08-02T16:03:30.418-06:002011-08-02T16:03:30.418-06:00I was wondering how you did in the TRT 100.
