I had to chuckle as I scrolled down through the pages! :) When you're on there next time, friend me Julie Coy Martinez, of First In Philly (that once was) fame! <br /><br />We have the parallel lives. This morning I was up at 5 running. As parents, we will train in the dark.

Very interesting if you sit back and really think about it. As cool as it would be to get paid to do it, after awhile, when does it "feel" like a job part kicks in?

Most people think we sit around and drink coffee and fire people.

Part of what sucked was the 'mental aspect' of thinking I was going to start at 8:15, then not. Oh well....it happens but I had the JFord guy on my shoulder saying "Do Work". :)bradleyd3https://www.blogger.com/profile/15945160927624780897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4321145233200471727.post-55831808511733349842013-02-06T09:15:48.789-06:002013-02-06T09:15:48.789-06:00I find it easier for me to stay up alter and ride ...I find it easier for me to stay up alter and ride the trainer than trying to do it while the family is still awake!

Sometimes I am asked why I dont really follow the pros in our sport. It is because of stories like this, the days were we deal with life, the 40+ week job, the family, the errands...... AND yet, we still find the time to make it all work and still train. When you step back and look at it, it is a pretty amazing feat. <br /><br />Nice work getting it done.
