I had a crash during my second race of the season a couple weeks ago. I don’t know but I always seem to crash in a way that messes up my season, my job or in some way that makes my life altered in some way.
No, I am not being dramatic. It just seems like a pattern.
I am scheduled for surgery this Thursday. I am a little nervous about it for some reason. I know it is pretty “simple” to have your collar bone set in metal. It happens all the time yet I am still a little nervous about it.
So, I went to the track today to get some lap time in. I love having a velodrome to yourself. You can hear the rhythm of the chain and the tires on the surface and the wind whistling through the helmet. It is very calming.
I have two broken ribs along with the broken collar bone which will be bonded with metal. Even with the snap of pain from my back when breathing it is still very zen for me.
For the past week or two I have barely left the house. I can’t really work and they won’t let me but the doctors say sit still. I could be working but they want me healthy first. Ugh, and while I wait my collar bone sets and heals poorly.
Why not take advantage of that healing before they break it again?
Anyway, life is good regardless. Work is good. The team is awesome. I have been training really hard and can’t wait to get past this and enjoy the rest of the summer.
It’s just stuff to think about.
Have the opportunity to race veldromes Europe this summer, Spain actually.
These are a couple of them. I am pretty stoked and this would be really cool.
