update
Been a good week - took off last Tuesday and rode 100 miles with Iron Drew (with 2 hours or so in the rain - fun!). Managed to hit masters swim on Tues,Wed and Fri. Woke up yesterday and got a long run (90 mins) at Walnut Creek. Man was I super dehydrated after that - this humidity is killing me.
Figured I wanted to be a bit more like Gordo, so I'm working on the 100 push up challenge. I'm only two days in (and today will be an off day) and wow, I'm a bit sore.
Julia's in town for the week so I didn't have to wake up and drive her to the airport this AM. Instead I woke up early and got in a 30 min run around the 'hood before catching the bus in to work. Thwe weather looks iffy at the moment, but I hope to ride a couple of hours after work.
Made it to Cailyn's bday party on Saturday morning and got to see a number of old friends I hadn't seen in awhile. Good times.
Overall life is going pretty good. I'm having to be careful about managing my workouts right now as I seem to have developed a bit of a nagging cough - annoying, but who knows, maybe I'm getting allergic to something?
We had a little Michael Jackson memorial party on Friday eve - we played some trippy MJ movie and random MJ/Jackson 5 music. We also had to make the usual bad jokes - we had cans of Pepsi next to the memorial photos and open flames, so we could fondly remember when his hair caught fire. We had an inflatable monkey there we called Bubbles and also had the bubble blowing stuff so people could blow Bubbles. I put out some trick or treat size candy with a note "Candy - for young boys only" and finally i did some grilling - people had their choice of little bite size weiners, bun-length weiners, or Brats, depending on your mood.
Overall it was a good weekend of training and relaxing and reconnecting with Julia.
Plans for this week - well, besides the usual work and training, nothing really comes to mind.
Oh, for those who didn't realize you could follow mojojoey's tbb updates on livejournal, I've syndicated the feed on LJ - just go to www.livejournal.com/syn and add mojotbbrss to your friends list!
