a karmic speedbump

hey now... while i freely admit that bailing on the ride was an act of wussiness and is subject to a host of ribbing and undefendable potshots, bad karma it was not. bottom line is, i was entertaining friends this weekend, and knew damned well that saturday night was going to be a long one. it was long enough, as a matter of fact, that had i gone on the ride sunday a.m. i would have had 2 1/2 hours of sleep before getting up to go punish myself.

i put fun ahead of training, which will surely come back to haunt me in less than 16 weeks, but i felt that i had to hang out with the bros, show them a good time in the Valley and not drag steak sauce and the sveninator on a slow, plodding, vomit-filled ride.

as a matter of fact, i think what i did was very positive, karmically speaking. i allowed you to get out there without having to pick up my carcass from the pavement. congrats on a good ride, though. i don't plan on missing another one.

karmically sound,
