		<title>56 days post op</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is day 56 since my surgery.  I&#8217;ve gone from walking into a surgery center and reading a book prior to surgery, to hobbling out high on Percocet (which didn&#8217;t do much for my pain).  Since then I&#8217;ve progressed from getting around on crutches with a splint, which turned into a hard cast, which is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Total Gimp</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Can you think of a better way to spend the holidays as a totally helpless gimp?  I can, but being a gimp is actually sort of enjoyable.
I did a lot of thinking going into my surgery.  When I first decided to have a screw put in to hold the fracture together, I planned out a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hopes, Dreams, Aspirations, and Reality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s that time of year again.  No major races, taking things a bit easy, looking back on the year that is wrapping up, and looking forward to the year that is upcoming.
I usually find myself looking forward to the next year as being full of possibilities in life, work, triathlon and all things in general.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Simple is Hard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few rows down from where I sit in my Cubie Farm &#8211; there is a whiteboard that tends to have a thoughtful quote on it.  I make a habit of walking by the whiteboard every morning to see if there is a new quote or not.
Yesterday I was rewarded with this gem:
The dirty little [...]]]></description>

		<title>Whimper Part II</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Received some feedback from a friend that the analysis posted yesterday was fairly one dimensional &#8211; focusing primarily on volume and ignoring intensity and other fitness related benchmarks.  Here was my reply:
 
I did not spend the time to look at those metrics.  When I wrote that my gut was this: I was as strong to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Not with a bang, but a whimper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So ends another season of triathlon.  I wish that I could say otherwise, I wish that I could be OK with my season because I had a number of good races.  The fact is I have a huge burden of disappointment right now.  I had a solid race at Racine, as well as a few [...]]]></description>

		<title>IMFL &#8211; Raceday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We did not have an alarm clock in our room, so I set both cell phones and one of my watches to wake us up.  I set them staggered 5 minutes apart to make sure any sleepiness got kicked in the butt!  Around 3:15 I woke up to use the bathroom, and in glancing at [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prerace &#8211; Friday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Friday was a pretty uneventful day.  We went down for a swim, and I did a short run.  I skipped out on the bike because I broke the valve stem extender on my front tire – and we had to spend some time searching for a way to fix it.  I ended up just falling [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prerace &#8211; Thursday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Thursday morning we woke up pretty early and walked down the beach to see the swim start.  After spending a few minutes down there we walked back to our room and I put on my wetsuit and we walked back down there for a swim.  I did one loop of the swim course – trying [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prerace &#8211; Wednesday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Mary and I both woke up early.  I had some coffee and pop tarts for breakfast.  Then I went down to the beach to do a swim.  I swam about 30 minutes – nice and easy.  When I was about 20 minutes in I was swimming along, and all of a sudden felt like I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prerace &#8211; Tuesday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We left Milwaukee around 7 AM, and flew to Atlanta and then on a small jet to Panama City.  The flight as a whole was uneventful.  When we got to Panama City – it turned out our rental car was a Mini-Van.  It’s actually pretty sweet!  The bike arrived without issues too.
We headed to our [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bib Number 3:17</title>
		<description><![CDATA[That&#8217;s me at Ironman Florida &#8211; 317.  I think that&#8217;s a good number, primarily because it will give me a constant reminder to HTFU on the Marathon and run &#8211; need a run split under my bib number.
Training has been pretty good, I&#8217;m starting to feel pretty sharp.  This past weekend I did a swim, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just not feeling it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[19 days from now I&#8217;ll be in Panama City Beach, FL and hopefully about 8 miles into the bike of IMFL. (It&#8217;s 8:15am as I write this).
I don&#8217;t know what to expect for the race right now.  On the one hand, I have been fanatically watching the water temperature and am thrilled to see it come [...]]]></description>

		<title>Can still swim pretty fast</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mary and I went up to Stevens Poin this past weekend for the biennial Alumni swimming meet.  It was a hoot, got to hang out with some old friends for a while.
I also swam just about every event they offered at the meet.  I was pretty surprised to swim the 100 free (SCY) in a [...]]]></description>
