Ok, it is not so much what I AM doing, but what I am NOT doing... which is racing cross this year. Feels odd, but I have some areas of my life that I neglected over the spring/summer from all the training I did. I feel like the work was totally worth it, and now it is time to enjoy my accomplishments, and get caught upwith some other things.
I really did have a bad experience at the first cross race of this year, bobbers CX. It was cold and crappy and so was I . Just not meant to be this year.
Specifically, I have been working on launching a new website for my freelance video production company Dreampost Media Services. Of interest to cyclists, I posted a clip from the 2008 Melon City Criterium. This clip features yours truly commentating, and the "DOMinator" (dominic moraniec) winning the cat three event. I originally broadcast this on Muscatine Cable. Check it out.
I am staying in shape, and back to my old pattern of building upper body muscle... yes, I will probably frantically try and get rid of it this spring, but I can't help looking 'normal' and possibly more appealing to the female species for a few months.
Once I get back at the cycling training, my focus will be on building the most expansive VO2max possible within my genetic limitations. I will be using every scientific training methodolgy I can think of to accomplish this goal.
Please excuse a slight break in the frequency of my posts. I will ramp it back up this winter as I begin training for 2011.

Congrats on an awesome season Chad! Enjoy the rest. You'll be ready for even bigger in 2011. I would love to get out for some weekend rides with you come spring. My website address changed to www.dreambigjp.net due to a problem too big to explain. I really appreciate you having linking my site with yours.

Jeff,
Yeah, if you want to be the best you have to train with the best...
or something like that.
