Day 1 of 5 starts tonight!

Alright! These are the weekends that I live for!!!!

I will be competing 7 times over the next 5 days, and at least once every day.

The racing festivities will begin tonight, Thursday, with the Kenny Hill Autowerks Crit races where I will race the 3/4 crit and the 4/5 crit back to back. (That's bike racing for those who don't know)

Friday evening will consist of two legs at the Zilker Relays consisting of 2.5 miles each leg. I will be running a 4 leg relay w/ Scott Kimbell of Adams State (who will do the other 2 legs) vs. the UTexas alumni team of Darren Brown, Kyle Miller, Erik Stanley, and Joe Thorne (all of whom are DI track all-americans).

Saturday will be a cycling road race of 38 miles w/ the Velossimo Racing Team. This one will be fun b/c I'm going to try and lead another teammate to victory...something I don't usually do ;)

Sunday will be yet another crit race w/ the Velossimo Team. This one I will be going for the win.

And finally....the most difficult of the 7 races, the Austin Triathlon on Monday, Labor Day, September 7th. I will be racing the likes of James Cotter (defending champ), Paul Terranova (Kona Age-group #1, soon anyway), David Kahn (USAT Amateur athlete of the year for 2008, now a pro) and Mr. Andrew Yoder (fastest cyclist in triathlon....period, and 4th at the NYC tri).

Good times...good times.

Wish me luck and I will keep all 3 of you, haha, up to date!

Hasta,

-Yorek
