Relaxation Part 2!
More relaxing today and I'll tell you what - I could get used to this! My only training for the day was a run which O and I did this morning before church. After church we read the paper (actually, more like I leafed through it), watched the end of the Le Tour and ate lunch. And then it was nap time. I'm a huge fan of nap time if anyone didn't notice. I will never understand those people that can't take naps. My mom is one of them. Good thing I got the napping genes from my father (who, by the way, is a master napper).
Anyway, we did clean the whole house which it was in need of. And we did our pool research. That is, research as to what pool I'm going to use for the next 5 weeks as my YMCA is shutting down! (not the whole YMCA, just the pool) How annoying! I understand that the pool needs maintenance but 5 whole weeks? And can't they do it in November when I'll be done with my season and not in need of a pool 5 days a week? I mean seriously - how rude not to ask ME first!?!?! :) I do have a couple other pool options - one is a YMCA north of us that we are allowed to use for free and the other is going to Pitt down where I work. Both great options but of course not nearly as convenient as my YMCA which is 5 minutes from our house. I'm sure I'll live though. And a change of pool scenary is always nice. :)
So I hope everyone has a wonderful week! Can you believe it's going to be August already? Two signs of summer's end are approaching - back to school sale ads and the Steelers going to training camp! AHHHH!!

Hi Beth! I continue to follow your tri success with admiration (and envy). You are having a great season and it sounds like you are enjoying yourself, which is the best part.
I wanted to echo your sentiment about naps. It isn't a truly relaxing weekend for me if I don't get a nap!

5 weeks is crazy! Don't they know that the Y schedule should revolve around your life and training and events :)
They closed ours for 3 weeks last year to drain and paint the pool. They drained it but decided not to paint it and it wasn't really even clean. Ugh.
It's nice you had such a relaxing weekend. I can't believe it is almost August either. Where has the summer gone?

I'm working with Takkle.com, a social networking site for sports.
Members can post photos, videos, share stats and schedules, and a
whole lot more with others throughout the community. Takkle is a place
where students, athletes, coaches, and fans can share their passion
for sports.
I feel that your site is very useful. I would love to know if you
could link to our social networking resource.
Thanks,
Sandi
