Ranked

I was looking through my gmail today and noticed the RaceCenter NW newsletter. As I glanced through I saw that TriNorthwest had published their 2007 rankings. I figured I'd hop over there to check them out:

If you notice, I'm ranked #1 in the open male. Woohoo!! I have no idea how they come up with their rankings since I failed to even make the overall duathlon rankings. Oh well, I guess all those races and training accounted for something this past year.

I got a new fancy phone that I was hoping to use for email and stuff since I'm traveling more. I saw one of those email ads from wireless provider, Verizon and decided to check it out. Well they cut me a deal on this phone called the Voyager. It's like an Iphone but with a full QWERTY keyboard. The screen is smaller than an Iphone but it also has an inner screen due to the flip open keyboard. It also includes GPS which will help since I'm moving to a new place. I'm syncing my music to it as we speak. It also supports bluetooth stereo so that will rock on rides without wires everywhere.

So the Beavers are in a cheap loser bowl called the Emerald bowl. The only interesting thing is we're playing Maryland. I just happen to be moving to about 5 minutes away from the University of Maryland campus. I'll be out there for the bowl game on Dec. 28th. Can you say, hello residents of Maryland in my full OSU regalia in a bar drinking lots of beer. Okay, well I won't be drinking beer but I'm an asshole 24/7 even without beer. I'm sure I can make lots of new friends. I can just hope the Beavers don't get embarrassed.

The move is getting closer and closer. I can feel the pressure...ugh. I determined my route barring massive snow and ice. I'm gonna try to make it to Cheyenne on the first day, then Indianapolis and then finally Silver Spring, Maryland. I figure I can drive the farthest on the first day as I'll be rested and ready to go. The last day will be the shortest at 880 miles.

How about the flooding everywhere...makes you want to see Evan Almighty and get your own Arc ready to float.
