The Ghoulies are doing Ironman distances this month!

Twice for the run. Once for the bike. We'll see on the swim. If the lake gets warm enough then easy peasy.

APRIL FOOLS DAY and I am off work. Wee HOOOO. I am going for a run in a few minutes.
Yep, you heard right.
Robin is Running in the morning!

You could use some of Bill's biking miles

Is the weather supposed to be nice there the next few days?

If not, head north!!!

BTW Ann, I have the usual things crossed and I am trying to figure out the other things I have two of.
Would the old "cross your heart" work?

same here.

im SUPER SILLY EXCITED.

i only wish i had my bike 

but i have the boys and i have a hybrid that will get me from point A to point Z though im gonna take it into Dicks today to see if they can realign the rear tire.

DH decided that he would take on the project and made it worse.  go figure.

leave it someone who knows what they are doing i kept saying.

ah well.

hopefully we can get it fixed today so that i can have more than 3 gears tomorrow.

otherwise, we'll just ride the lake.  its flat the whole way.




WHAT DO YOU HAVE PLANNED to enjoy the SPECTACULARLY BEAUTIFUL WEATHER ROBIN???

I will take whatever I can get.

I am also trying to finish up the KSA questions that I've been avoiding so I can apply for 4 other gov't positions. I would rather have 1 of these since travel isn't involved but at this point I will take what I can get just to get out of here.

Stacie - Because I think the world of you I will kick you whenever necessary

Oh my, First my run today (leaving by 9- I have one work call to make). Hopefully a bike tomorrow am, Maybe my 10 K on Saturday and a planned MTB ride at the Biltmore estates back woodson Monday. In between- yard work- building a fence, mulching the 60 trees we moved, spraying herbicide to kill some invasives, weeding, planting seeds). I am going to try to get the kayak out on the lake, too. We will see how much of this I get to.

Ghoulies I may need a kick of my own here soon.

I just can't get my head in the game. The few workouts I have done lately haven't been much, which just makes me feel worse. I just can't find anything right now to make me push myself.

Maybe you don't need a push, maybe you need a carrot.

Reward yourself after a mini goal is reached. That way you don't have to look at the whole picture, just little frames.

I have the PGH HM on May 2nd and Black Bear Oly on May 23rd.

I am super stressed out about my job. I haven't had a decent workout since my hours changed 2 weeks ago. I always feel rushed so I either skip them or don't do as much as I think I should. Before my hours changed I could get an hour and a half workout in before anyone got home. Sometimes I'd still be doing something when the kids got home, but not for long.

I got up so early in the morning so I could get my workouts out of the way without impacting my family too much. My kids are still young, 10 and 6, I can only ask them to sacrifice so much.

I think I'm stressed too because I have PGH coming up in a month and my running isn't where it should be.

My biking isn't what it should be for Black Bear either

i just figured out that i would have to average 6.55 miles per week to hit the run mile goals.

after yesturdays 6 miler, i should be OK.  so thanks anyways mr graves.

any extra miles i scrounge up over the month, you can have em.
