Last week when I did my brick, M was in DC for the day so naturally I ate dinner after my workout. It never fails that when he is away/busy for the night and I’m working out that I eat after my workout. However, when he’s home he convinces me to eat dinner before the [...]
I’m really tired this evening, probably a combination of my bike ride this evening and getting up earlier this week to do Shred. I did Shred again this morning. I seriously cannot believe how much I sweat in that 20 minutes nor how much I want the 20 minutes to be over! I actually posted [...]
I had grand plans of doing a 45+ mile bike ride today. Had a bit of a scheduling issue and decided to do 25 miles instead. About 10 miles in I realized that eating really erratic today (bowl of cereal at 11 a.m. was the most substantive thing I ate all day) was leaving absolutely [...]
Tonight I did my third brick. If you recall, my first one was a few weeks ago and the run was on the treadmill. Last week’s brick was 12.5 miles, which is the length of the bike ride in the triathlon, and the run was 1.5 miles outside, immediately after the ride. Tonight I [...]
I don’t think those are the actual song lyrics…but it’s my blog so I can say whatever I want
Mondays are a ginormous fail in my opinion. Is there a point in life when you start enjoying Mondays? If so let me know when that is and I’ll just try to skip ahead. (I really [...]
Well I had the a less than stellar eating weekend (think onion rings, chinese food, chicken wings)…okay it was bad but really thinking back it wasn’t as bad as it could have been because I could have drank last night and I passed (and I was so happy with that decision this morning). However, this [...]
M and I haven’t been sleeping the latest lately so we have decided to start not watching tv or using the computer an hour before bedtime (there’s lots of research out there preaching that), and that hour started 3 minutes ago so I have to make this quick.
I finally got a work out in tonight [...]
I failed miserably at taking pictures today as I said I was going to yesterday. I will make it a goal tomorrow to take at least 5 blogworthy pictures. This picture taking this has made me realize how hard it is for food bloggers out there who post 3 posts a day full [...]
I wore a belt today that I haven’t worn…since I bought it at least 3 years go (yeah I’m not so smart sometimes).
I packed my lunch & snacks for the day which were, as promised, the exact same as yesterday.
I came home this afternoon and went on a 12.5 mile bike ride in 42:23. [...]
I biked 30 miles today! Here’s my route:
The weird part about the ride was that the first half was much harder than the second half. I think there were two reasons: the wind was worse on the first half and the roads on the second half were much more even and overall better.
The ride took [...]
