Thankfully the closest thing i will come to a kid is a cat. I do admire your dedication though.<BR/>Thanks rickie for your positive words! My health, both physical AND mental, has taken a sharp turn upwards so i feel like i am firmly back on track. Yippee. it surely feels good. hope your brother is recovering speedily. I did read the barry wicks article. Too bad he wont be back in belgium this season. It was fun to cheer for him. He is a really good guy.PEANUThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01084132705399321019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-44574775029890417512008-11-13T03:19:00.000+01:002008-11-13T03:19:00.000+01:00PS.

Yikes!<BR/><BR/>As far as Niels, the kid has got some gumption! (Translate THAT). Would not die. Kept on Lars until the end. That showed a lot. Wasn't intimidated by the jersey. It is hard to teach character. <BR/><BR/>Good thoughts to Rickie's bro.GCDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07434099086119675469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-56120676151413941212008-11-13T00:10:00.000+01:002008-11-13T00:10:00.000+01:00Chritine,I hope you are feeling better each day. ...Chritine,<BR/>I hope you are feeling better each day.

He definitely has that power-to-weight ratio down!<BR/>Why do you get up at 4am to work out? I assume you then go back to sleep?<BR/>Orifices like eyes, ears, mouth, and a little on the butt cheeks but not farther than that.<BR/>Rickie<BR/>So sorry to hear about your brother. That sucks. I hope he now ok.<BR/>Thanks CHR. I did motorpace today to see if my body is healed enough to start training hard again and signs are optimistic. I still have one more hard training workout today so hopefully that will go well too. Fingers and toes crossed.PEANUThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01084132705399321019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-12952086562016369682008-11-12T14:57:00.000+01:002008-11-12T14:57:00.000+01:00Rickie.Best wishes to you brother.Rickie.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes to you brother.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-23141536961344273442008-11-12T14:56:00.000+01:002008-11-12T14:56:00.000+01:00Damn Flu!Hope you recover soon :) What a time to g...Damn Flu!<BR/>Hope you recover soon :) What a time to get sick? that'll teach you to travel to the Czech Republic!<BR/><BR/>Sounds as though the trip to Germany was a sucess though! Great results especially given all the driving.<BR/><BR/>The week running up to Pijnacker was hardly ideal prep either, but you gave it ago and hopefully gained some more fitness out of it!<BR/><BR/>Get Well Soon :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-57121604221296677602008-11-12T03:36:00.000+01:002008-11-12T03:36:00.000+01:00Not a good time to test that Vegan theory on the f...Not a good time to test that Vegan theory on the flu. I hope you really do recover extremely quickly like you said in one of your interviews. I'm glad you took the time to let us know how you are. I was beginning to go into Peanut withdrawl. Nemo was even getting squirrely. Eighth place and third place is pretty "Friggen" good! I guess pushing hard can play havoc on the immune system. Be gentle with yourself! My brother had a Liver Transplant last tuesday, and appears to be doing well, so I have been a little more philisophical these last few days. Thanks for the update. <BR/>Your biggest fan,<BR/>RickieRickie Rainwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14315426223545490980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-504410890566738292008-11-11T22:11:00.000+01:002008-11-11T22:11:00.000+01:00Good thing you didn't get in Katie's way.

My new hero is Niels Albert, who was getting repeatedly kicked around by Boom but hung in there. Unless of course you say he is not hero-worthy, and then I'll move onto my next new hero. <BR/><BR/>4:00am? That's when I typically get up to do my workouts. Not much sympathy from me. <BR/><BR/>I would ask about the orifices, but you are now married, and that wouldn't be proper.GCDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07434099086119675469noreply@blogger.com
