Chicago or Bust!
Well, it's been a bit of a blur but we are READY TO GO! Yesterday was swim practice, work, and then home for a 2 hour trainer ride. That is a 2 hour trainer ride that I DIDN'T WANT TO DO. In the worst way I didn't want to do it. I was tired and cranky and it was late and I had a lot of other things to do. But that's just the way it is. You get on the bike and you pedal until 2 hours has passed anyways. Because, as my one of my favorite sayings goes, "no one who has ever succeeded in this world did what they did only when they felt like it."
Moving onto this morning, O, Roxy and I all went for a run in 5 degree temps. Actually, I just looked at our thermometer and it now says "3". I was pretty much thinking the whole time that I was quite concerned about my right hand pinkie finger. It just didn't feel like it wanted to remain part of my body. But it's still there and all is well.
And now it's time to go west! Very, very, very excited. As is Roxy. She is just beside herself. She knows something is up, she's just not sure what. And she is definitely sticking close to make sure she doesn't get left behind! :)
Have a great Friday everyone!

Nice job cranking out your trainer ride. Love the quote - it is SO TRUE! Have a very safe drive - watch out for the speed traps along the Ohio 80/90 corridor. Its a great stretch of interstate, with wonderful rest stops - all paid with by speeding tickets... okay, not really sure about the speeding ticket thing, but whenever Nate and I drove that particular stretch, we saw lots of cops. But enjoy the long car trip! Hurrah for road tripping!
