There is nothing you can do that I have not already done to myself....

So with that being said, how do you deal with such? The hardest battles are always fought within ourselves, and that is certainly true with me. It took boot camp in the US Marine Corps, circa 1985, to bring me to a normal weight...I always thought of it as being paid to work out, sorta like a professional athlete. Fast forward 24 friggin years and that battle continues to rage. Since 2006, I told my teammates that my weight would find its competitive balance, and I am pleased to say that I'm within 20 pounds of that weight.
Today, my cycling collective was formally handed to me by Jim Wiznura and Mark Lorenz. Jim made a move, too early I thought, but I was nowhere near in physically answering it. This was after Mark Lorenz did the brunt of the work while we stayed in his slipstream. Eventually, I will drop this anchor around my neck, one pound at a time....everything serves as a lesson, even the painful sh*t.
Here are the top 5 songs in my current playlist, check out the preview on iTunes and if you like, grab the song for yourself.

Dave Gahan - Dirty Sticky Floors (silencer remix)
Eric Prydz - Pjanoo (club mix) {side note-video makes me think I'm shroomin}
Deadmau5 - Ghosts n Stuff
Mindless Self indulgence - Tommie Sunshine (Tsmv) Remix
Fragma - Toca's Miracle (Impetto Remix)
