Tomorrow is the big day...the start of my second semester of grad school. This term will be a lighter load, so I can balance school with racing. I will be learning mostly through Independent Study, which will be a new experience for me. I have really missed school this past month. It is a great distraction to have when I have down-time from the bike. I get a bit restless during off days or recovery weeks, so school keeps my mind occupied. And I love learning!
I am hoping that studying on the road between races will be a good thing. Last year I felt like I laid around and watched a lot of TV. This will keep my brain functioning a little better. Yay!
