I hope it's sunny wherever you are!

Off day for me today...but back out to the salt flats.  Yesterday kicked my butt--it's becoming an 8 hour workout scraping/spraying the salt off the cars/trucks/campers.  Another long day ahead today! 

Good luck Sunday racers!!!

Will hit the pool in a bit.  Will work a couple of adult soccer games this afternoon.     Heat index should be near 100.  Yeah, we've had a cool spell the last day or so.

Short run (3.5K) in the morning with positively breezy cool weather...a real rarity for August in the middle East.

Beach with the kids afterwards. Was gonna try an OWS but the balck flags were flying and undercurrent was really strong. BEyond a tiny patch right under the lifeguards station - no swimming allowed!

Finally got out for a 3.5 mile run this morning.  Cut my usual 5 mile run short as I am healing up from some blisters on my feet (From playing golf in near 100 degree weather) and didn't want to push my luck.

Rotten weather here in Philly. Going away brunch for my friend this afternoon. My #1 biking buddy and a great triathlete is moving to the UK to work on her Ph.D. I'll miss her!

I'd better get some miles in because it's going to be a food fest! 5 mile run planned.

32mile bike ride on my favorite route this morning. Was a little disappointed when I found out they just chipped and sealed a good portion of the route.

1/2 marathon today that I signed up for on Friday. It went poorly, my quads killed at 4km in and stayed that way the whole race. Had to stop to use the washrooms twice. Wasn't my day thats for sure.

Good luck Sunday racers!!!

Those of us in Texas are a bit tired of the sun this year.  Fortunately it looks like rain today!!!  YES!!!

30 mile recovery ride this morning followed by house painting (that's my version of a brick).  5,000M swim workout at noon.  Recovering now and hopefully will be doing a 7 - 8 mile run later in the rain.

90 min run + a bath for each of my 3 cats (one has what the vet thinks might be ringworm, so all 3 have to get a medicated bath) this morning.

Which activity is more strenuous is debatable.

It's been a great day.  I went for a run with my wife this morning and she had a huge break through.  She's lost 60 lbs. since January and has just started running.  She's never ran more than 1 mile continuous in her life and we ran 5.5 miles without stopping this morning.  It was slow, but I couldn't be more proud of her.

After that she drove home and I ran 6.5 miles to get home at my normal pace.  
So 12 Miles total for me.
