Along This Trail...RAM!

on Saturday, the Gods smiled.
They allowed me to win the KOM at the top of Hesperus in the "B" Group club ride,
and 48.5 miles and 2,460' later, finish 6th in the 45 mph+ descent down Wildcat Canyon back to Durango. ilg didn't win the KOM (King of Mountain) because i was the most powerful or strongest climber among the 13 road-cycling warriors...not even close. ilg won because of tactics and wise discrimination and experience. i ninja'd the two leaders 300 meters from the summit by literally doing a pranayam and blowing myself as light as possible up the infamous, heart-withering climb which has long been a weekly test-piece for locals...

on Sunday, the Gods smiled again...
this time, not upon a road biking ilg, rather, in a categorically diverse
path of of sacred sweat...oh!!! how Blessed the Path of Wholeness...to play our physiologic capacities among God's wild toys and ways...


Read The Rest
on today's DL
and learn about the Sacred Temple of Boulderers: The Boxcar
plus a Birthday Poem to Ananda
a God-intoxicated Sutra from Swami Ramdas
and how ilg ties it all into Personal Fitness and Sport Performance;
