On a more exciting note my condo finally sold. Being a bit of an independent woman I thought I could sell my condo on my own. After almost 2 months of little interest I hired Botsy Phillips as a realtor and my place was under contract in about a week.

On the racing front I'm feeling ready for Nationals this weekend...a bit nervous, but ready! We raced the Fall Classic in Breckenridge two weeks ago and it was a gorgeous mud fest. No, really, despite snowing the night before the weather was perfect, the course challenging and the aspens were even yellow up high. I ended up 3rd in the Pro Women after being in second until the last few miles. Last Saturday was a cross race in Golden and let's just say I'm really not good at starting hard. Watching me you would have thought I was out for a Saturday cruise on the Creek Path, "oh go ahead please, oh and you too, everyone just go on ahead, let's not fight for the hole shot". I was in dead last off the line but worked my way up through the field to 9th. I ate it going over a barrier and have a lovely blue shin now. It's not fair when the barrier is almost up to your knee and when the fatigue sets in it takes all my might to get over these. Or maybe it's because I never practice this. I was much more fortunate that my sister-in-law who now has a new neck piece like this:
Let me tell you Beth is one tough lady! She didn't finish the race but was walking around and feeding Baby Sam only to learn when she got to the ER that her C7 is fractured. Beth, we're glad you're OK...heal up soon! Life can change quickly, appreciate what you have and those that you love!
