Weekend Results
Well the weekend results are pouring in and it looks like there were great races all around! And also harsh racing conditions. As cold, wet and windy as Worlds were in Vancouver yesterday, Eagleman seemed to be equally as hot, humid and generally miserable today! I picked a good weekend not to race! :) (although I'm sure I'll eventually get my fair share of rough conditions too...)
Anyway - so many of my teammates *really* raced well this weekend, all over the country! And my friends Chad and Jen rocked at Eagleman! And bloggers were racing well here, there and everywhere! It's so exciting to see people's hard work pay off! :)
As for me, I'm just doing my normal thing here in hot and humid Pittsburgh! This morning O and I had a nice long run of about 14 miles on the trail. It was already 75 degrees at 5:30 am but we ran in the woods so it was at least shady. Now if only we would have thought to wear bug spray! (not that it all wouldn't have been sweated off in the blink of an eye of course...) Also on the docket (but not yet completed) is an hour spin on the bike, cleaning our dirty house and planting those flowers that I bought Friday. The planting might have to wait until it's dark outside and I feel like venturing back out into that heat!
Hope everyone has a wonderful start to their weeks!

Yes, bug spray is a MUST! The deer flies are the WORST! Sounds like it WAS a good weekend to not race - I agree with you on that one. PART of me is a teeny-weeny bit happy that my worlds olympic distance debut wasn't at vancouver.... I think you had it better in Germany last year... :) Enjoy your Monday and stay COOL!

Glad you had a great weekend! I like weekends that are normal and low key!

Hope your heat wave passes really soon. It makes cycling so much more appealing than running, huh? No bugs and you can make your own breeze...although you can end up covered with white fluffy things!
