I did some rummaging around blog sites today - you can get lost reading other people's thoughts. What I found most interesting is that I kept finding myself on blogs that were mostly written about endurance sports, cycling and other athletic endeavors. I think riding the bike this weekend triggered that old desire to push myself. See - I'm a sprinter. Always have been, always will be. What the bike gave me was the ability to go farther, harder, longer than I ever could do when running or swimming. I'm still no endurance athlete - they fascinate me so much though!
So now that I have recovered from that nasty virus, I will be on the bike again tomorrow. I love dog agility, it's fun. I want to continue to improve and help my dogs reach their potential but it just doesn't cut it for me as an athlete. I need something more and I always will. So it is either swimming, running or cycling. I chose cycling :)

Swimming running or cycling? I think you need a JOB to keep your crazy head busy!
No - don't need anything more than teaching agility. It's hard to understand the drive to push your body unless you have the addiction. Some people have it, others don't. The ones that don't, don't get it.
I have plenty of other addictions. But they are mental.
Please don't get so in shape that you jump around the car like a pinball on the way to Arizona.
:-P
Too funny!!!
It's funny because it's TRUE! LOL
You're just a kook, that's all. We need to start bleeding you weekly and concentrating it and selling it or something. It'll be the new Meth.
I just laughed my pants off!
