Buzzed

[PonoBill]

I got a shot of Cortisone in my knee yesterday. Presto--it's feeling great. Put me right back on the track for playing hard. I've been limping around like a little wimp. My bike was covered in dust.

1.5 hours hitting it in the OC6 this morning, then a bike ride up seven mile hill--30 miles. I have a warm buzz in my whole body. I think I'm going to set up a personal triathlon and try to do it every other day.

I like this feeling.

Tomorrow I'm thinking flat water sprint paddling, bike ride, then an east wind downwinder from Viento to Cascade Locks.

Then Friday I need to REALLY bring it--three hour meeting with lawyers and drive to Seattle to race cars. Yuck. I'll bring the bike and the board to the track though, and maybe get some paddling or riding in.

After reading a hell of a lot of your posts and a lot of rumination I have decided,

When I grow up I want to be just like you!!!


Really hope to meet and discuss EVERYTHING with you one day, I got some nice rum for you too!

Oh yeah, I know that feeling.  I had forgotten how good it was because I hurt my knees over 30 years ago and I had not found an endurance sport that took the place of running and biking.  Then I built a paddle board this summer.  Suddenly the world looks much brighter, I have rediscovered my favorite self medication.  A couple of nights a week I go straight to the reservoir for at least an hour of paddling, and hit the rivers on the weekends if it is not to gross. ( the drought broke, which means the dog turds folks don't clean up get washed into the watershed and the rivers test positive for coliform bacteria).

Wasn't this somewhat covered earlier?

"Deeeeeeeeeeeeewwwd"   

It almost sounds like the cortizone shot was given while you were getting an iv vitamin infusion or perhaps the fountain of youth was found up there in the great NW. Or possibly fall is fast approaching? Yes, I know....endorphins and the human body are quite amazing and when pain disappears it can be like drinking from the magic giblet. Go man, go.

Thumbs up here too.

Just not limping and whining was enough to get me fired up

Just don't OVER do it and inflame old inuries or cause new ones.
Everything in moderation, although I don't think that exists in your DNA.

I have no motivation for the stamina testing activities.... except one

Surfing (SUSing).... I don't have a governor... if I don't have to leave the water... I don't.

Yesterday... (# 7 straight)... I went out at 6:45 am to a knee to waist high swell... surfed with several buddies at our usual peak. They left about 8:30

At 1:30, one of my friends came back and sat on the beach with his wife.

I came out of the water, he came over... "Have you been out since this morning?"

Yup - 6 hour session

Man did I feel good.... which does crossover to the "stoned thread"

I'm outta here... time to go surf!

Just checked the came Creek at the 6:59 mark. Either that's you or someone beat you out there. Waiting for a phone call then I'm outta here too, hopefully in the next couple of minutes.
