Welp. I started the P90X program yesterday (FINALLY!!) and managed to get through about 45 min of the Shoulders CD. I decided to leave out the "bonus" stuff for now. I'm going to go for a ride later today (I tend to ride better in warmer weather and don't have arm/leg warmers for early morning rides). Unfortunately, as luck would have it, just as I get started into this stuff, I have to travel. My visa paperwork is finally arriving and I'll likely have to trudge up to Canada to get my visa done as well as fly back to the US to go through Customs to get it the final stamp of approval. This will likely mean nearly a week on the road, no cycling. I can do the P90X, at least, in my hotel room so that's one comfort. Once I've done that, then I'll head to Seattle for a week (I also have a trip to Reston, VA scheduled for the first week of Dec). So, lots of travel.

I've been doing some reading for some cycling specific training and am looking at Chris Carmichael's Time-Crunched Training Plan (using 6-8 hours a week to train for centuries and the like but not a professional athlete's level). I want to get back into long distance cycling. I'm thinking of doing L.A. to San Diego and back either later this year or early next. I figure that would be roughly about 100 miles (give or take) each way and would be a good weekend project trip.

I was curious if anyone else was vegan and training. And if so, what protein supplement do you use? We recently found Raw Revolution (great quick raw food bars) but they are high in their use of agave syrup. I do have Vega and am contemplating getting a protein I can add to homemade smoothies (a plain flavour option in addition to adding flax for Omegas).
