The top ten things I learned in Tremblant one week ago today.
10) It's hard to quit!
9) People who love you, will still love you when you do!
8) There is a big difference between 'alone', and 'lonely'.
7) Lac Tremblant can get very freakin cold!
6) The story rarely plays out the way you write it.
5) My family is composed of the most remarkable people!
4) There is such a thing as an unpleasant bike ride!
3) I really gotta do something radical about my swimming!
2) Quebecers don't dislike other Canadians!
And the number one thing I learned from my actions a week ago only became obvious today.
1) When you pee down your right leg, your right shoe will still smell like piss a week later!
Okay, so maybe I should have already known some of those things, but once again I am reminded that it's hard to learn stuff, when you already know everything... :)
And one of my guiding philosophies has always been that a learning day is a good day, regardless of what else went on. If I truly believe that, then I have to conclude that Aug 17/2014 was a good day!
Today was a good day as well. It was my return to training, and I am happy to tell you that I felt completely normal. It was nice to discover that my bike still works reasonably well.
