I just noticed that on my last update I mentioned that Spring is a good time for a cleanse. No kidding! Right before I left for Chile, I discovered that I was dealing with “copper toxicity syndrome”. Needless to say, I was not feeling that great, but there was nothing to do but get on the plane and deal with it when I got back home. It was a very quick trip and my race was slow. Chile was beautiful though, and I did manage to enjoy the scenery.

After the race I took a bath in the river, ran through airport security still in my swimming clothes, and boarded the plane with no food. I landed in Asheville ready to get my “healing” on. I only had a week to start detoxing and recover before the first US cup in Fontana California. It worked out pretty well and I came 5th on race day. I am happy to be moving in the right direction. Up!

Today I am driving to Venice Beach, CA for a photo shoot with Outside magazine. I love doing photo shoots, so I am pretty excited. It is for the June issue, so make sure to check it out!
Tomorrow I fly back to NC for a few training rides in Pisgah. Then it is off to South Africa, Sea Otter, Germany and Belgium. I am going to be flying by then!
Stay calm, stay clear and take care of your physical body. We experience our lives through our body, so don’t underestimate how much better everything is when you are feeling good!
