I DEMAND a Burrito - NOW!
I really, really, really want a burrito right now. With lots of chips. And salsa. I'm thinking it's almost burrito...er...dinner time! (I can always talk O into a burrito). And while I definitely love burritos and all foods Mexican, I think what I'm truly hankering for is SALT!
Ever since I took up this crazy sport of triathlon I've turned to love all things salty. Don't get me wrong - I love my sweets too (I'm not one to turn down a bowl of ice cream) but I prefer salty things - chips and pretzels and cheese and hmm...I have visions of salt dancing in my head! I'm especially hungry for salt after a long ride or a long run (or a long race for that matter). After Steelhead, while I was taking a shower at the hotel, I sent O to the grocery store next door with the charge of coming back with something, anything salty! He choose tortilla chips (one of my favs) but if he had come back with a salt shaker I would haven't cared. I would have just licked that salt right up. Okay...I may be grossing some people out now. :)
Anyway, after my three workouts today I'm definitely craving some salt right now! I started the morning with a 2:30 ride followed by a 30 min run off the bike. It was a glorious morning - chilly almost as when I started it was a nippy 52 degrees! It warmed up into a beautiful sunny day though. After some recovery at home from the brick I went to the pool for a 3000 yd swim that involved 150s and 300s.
Of course we took a nap this afternoon (O was tired from his cross country race this morning in which he ran very, very well!) and now it's time to actually get some things accomplished around the house. Although first we will definitely need a burrito...and chips...and salsa... :) Have a great one everybody!
