slow skinny and somewhat sporty

After biking like a maniac with some Thunder Racing people, I ran a cross-country 10k and was pretty slow finished around 00:58 that is like a 9 minute mile. I wish running was more of a steady sport but then it wouldn't be running. I wasn't hurting except my feet fell asleep and I could feel the blood pooling in the bottom of my feet. I could really tell I haven't been running though.

Sarge I can't feel my legs!!

So, I've been doing little chaturanga runs, jump rope, planks and the like. Exploring what I can try and do on the Bosu ball (sp?) squats and stuff like that. So I feel really good! I suprised myself in sort of a bad way when I went swimming the other day and saw how see through my tri shorts had become from the chlorine. I was NOT aware this could happen, and I am suprised I haven't been thrown out of the YMCA because of that. So I ordered some online yesterday and should be in the water swimming with me in about a week. Until then looks like I'll just be lifting some light weights med reps in the gym.

ITS COMING SOON!!

My first upcoming race is 2 weeks away now! exciting! I haven't been running so I need to get on that but its just been nasty weather so I didn't want to risk getting sick. My brother and his wife visited so I only got in a run on Sunday I went about 5.5 miles and I'm still sore today...not a good sign. I kept a good fast pace and it felt good though. My bro. and I were wrestling some so I guess that could count as training for the full contact sport of triathlon swimming! lower body wieghts and swimming Monday and today! YEAHH!!

V-day

It is a cauliflower sheep!
I think that was just pretty cool. I was super scared they were going to turn brown before she saw them.
Thank goodness the watermelon was pretty easy and really colorful! Awsome!
Finally a rush to put it all together and make the delivery!


Well, Valentine's Day has come and gone. Here was my project for my vegetarian girlfriend. I hope to get in a couple hours of MTN biking this afternoon.My brother and his wife are coming into town so that should be great times!

Cookies!

Girlscout cookies are going to be my downfall. I've probably eaten about 1 and 1/2 boxes of their delicious and non nuritious cookies by myself. I woke up early this morning so I went for a swim 900yards. It was pretty good. At the end I tried to do the butterfly and some people were trying to help me. I think the lady in the office was either calling her friends or a zoo to get report some wild flaling animal in the pool!

Slacker!

So every weekend since my last little post I've been riding 3 hours on my mounainbike and lifting at the gym. Not alot of running at all and still swimming at least 1 time a week. I really need to put in more time doing a little in all the sports. I ran a 3.1 mile cross country little race and my time was 25:02 not too good but what I expected from not training too much. On the up and up my new team jersey came in today and I'll be trying it out at the 60 miler Ouachita Challenge!
