Tuesday's Postcard from Dad


The Tour is over and I have no idea who won. It was a non-event without Lance Armstrong wearing the yellow jersey. I do know that drugs were flowing freely. What ever happened to endorphins - the drug of choice and champions?

It was sad...we used to always watch it and since Lance it gone, we really didn't even though we knew it was going on.

Dad, you are too funny. :) I was trying to read your comments while I was running this morning (I was looking at my blackberry while I was on the treadmill), and I could barely understand what you were saying! :) Glad to see you learned how to comment!

Missy, my dad has been obsessed with the Tour for years... it's sad to see it all go to pot.

My parents and still watch it avidly, my mom wrote a really great post on it this year (on her blog). We were in Lake Powell during the final week so I heard all about it.

Once I was in Paris and I was able to see Lance Armstrong cross the finish line- it was a great moment in my life.
