bikes, marathons and surfing

Summer 2008. Kind of an interesting summer, no golf this year, things got off to a different flavor by training and doing the Avenue of the Giants marathon in May, did a personal best 3 hours, 48 minutes, so I sort of stuck with the i'm an athelete theme, continuing with running and then picking up the cycling. Bought a commuter bike, as I've decided to commit to a no driving commute to work. The commute bike has full fenders, its a single gear for simplicity . . . well, I guess for coolness. Took the fenders off for summer, but will put them back on when the rainy season comes. Riding with a fixed gear was challenging at first, but I am getting the hang of it. Last summer we did lots of water skiing, not as much this summer, but some. No golf, did I say that already. I miss golf, its so fun, but just no time this summer. We did surfing behind a wakeboard boat this summer, with Pam's cool friends Dennis and L (is that Elle?), I'll post a video of that, if I can. Well, that's it for now, bye now.
