Running In Circles

Course: None

Comments: I didn't run today; it was too freaking hot.

The time trial of today's stage of the Tour de France held a few surprises for me. I didn't expect Gontchar to have the legs to win again. I didn't expect Klöden to beat Landis. And I didn't expect Pereiro to ride well enough to keep second place. I did, however, expect Landis to take the Yellow Jersey, and he did. Leipheimer managed to move in front of Boogerd, but Cunego passed them both, so Leipheimer remains in luck 13th place. Cunego, besides just jumping from 15th to 12th, managed to wrap up the White Jersey title.

Tomorrow's stage will almost certainly come down to a bunch sprint. In that case, I have to pick Robbie McEwen to win.
 
Sometimes I feel like I'm breathing underwater.
