Dear Coach -
I am still alive and doing well.� Walking lots of dragons with work and training.� I think, no I know, I need to come and visit you soon.� Will talk to Lynne and see what I can do about coming to LA this fall for another Private Intensive with you.
I would love to be able to wear one of the Wholistic Fitness Cycling Jerseys. I would take a medium. Hope you have one left for "Fit Kit."
My off road Ironman was cancelled. Can you believe that in North American they could not find 300 or so warriors who would toe the starting line.� Until they cancelled it I had some of the most consistent training I had ever done - it is amazing what a little fear will do for one's motivation.
Had some good results in my other triathons.� 2nd in Provincial long course championship for age category and 3rd in Provincial Olympic distance.� Last weekend I was doing a Half Ironman in Alberta and out on the bike course I was almost reduced to tears with gratitude for all the riches I had.� I thought of you and the strength that your teachings have given me.� The joy that my family, my friends, my competitors and my fitness gives to me was at that moment almost over powering.� It reminded me of the Chi hits on some of our Colorado� road rides.
Still on my long and�winding path of Wholistic Fitness.

With love
