BARK!
Well of course I've been addicted to ironmanlive today "watching" IM Canada. That was one heck of a race! It's always interesting watching the splits come in and then later reading reports/quotes from the race and understanding how it really unfolded. Anyway, I also enjoyed seeing results of other races around the country, all the while wishing I was racing too! Not much longer - just 3 more weeks for me!
Today O and I did a long run this morning. It was nice - great morning and I think we both felt good. O ate a banana before the run and felt like a million bucks. He never eats before he runs usually. Well duh. :)
Then this evening I rode my bike and it was so nice out! After dinner time on Sunday night might be my new favorite time to ride. It's so quiet! I did have one little snag where I was stopped at a light (I was first in line) and when we all started up again the truck that rolled past me first had a big dog hanging out the window unbeknownst to me. Well of course just as they passed the dog (who at this point was leaning out the window) let out a HUGE bark right in my ear! It scared me half to death. I nearly toppled over on my bike! So sorry coach for the HR max of 202. That wasn't a mistake. :)
So anyway, I still have bike grease on my hands and I really need to clean myself up. Or they might now let me in the pool tomorrow morning. :)
Good night everyone. Have a great week!
