The Everyday Athlete

Rain!  Mud!  It’s coming, it’s coming!

I’ve been so patient - haven’t I?  I have.

Therefore I deserve for Barton Park to be downright miserable.  Please, skies, keep dumping!

It’s been a goat rodeo over here at Everyday Athlete HQ this week, so I’m sticking you with a link roundup to keep you busy while you wait for the bell to ring so you can run down the hall and put on your costume.

• Read this book.  I haven’t yet, but I’ve had several people contact me specifically to tell me that I must.  Book club, anyone?
• This kid is absolutely incredible.  Julian, you’re my new hero. (Photo is part of the Ironclad flickr set)
• Sal got some good lovin’ in the pdxcross slideshow from Sunday.  Check out photo 16 to see the Ugliest Cheerleader Ever.
• Speaking of pdxcross, I’m working on something cool with them.  I can’t tell you about it yet, but I will later.  Promise.
• I wrote a silly little Halloween Column for the Oregonian that ran last Sunday.  My mom claims not to remember this traumatic childhood experience but I swear it’s true.

And, finally, helmet-cam love from a PV C Master, Paul Formiller:
