Who is planning some bigtime racing this weekend? Spill the beans!
Nothing for me just off to swim meets this weekend Well, Bryce killed the MG! I am doing an Oly Sunday with Linda and Cheri! Silicon Valley International Tri. Hoping for good weather that is not too hot! Will be soaking the wetsuit in the tub tonight to stretch it out. Finished 5th in my race tonight, couldn't outsprint a 15 year old girl for 4th... To make matters worse she and her coach asked if I was one of our 17 year old juniors dad... Tony - do you have these conversations with yourself??? Part II here
Nice job tonight even if you got chicked by a 15 year old |

To make matters worse she and her coach asked if I was one of our 17 year old juniors dad... Now that hurts. Badly. Hey, Hey, Hey .... be careful! There are several members of this MG that are parents of those 17 year olds. Some of them even race, all be it slower, in Tony's AG! and some are even grandparents Nice job on the race Tony, even if you did get chicked by a 15 year old There is NOTHING wrong with that... if you have 17-year-olds. But when your oldest is what, 9? 10? Then it hurts. I am closer to the parenting of a 17-year-old than I care to admit, mind you! Ha!! |

Just kidding, Kyla... the funny thing is Tony is only a year younger than me, so he very well could be the father of a 17 year old, hah! |

True, I did tell them I was plenty old enough to be his father, but as Kyla said when your oldest is only 7, it just makes it funny. The 17 year old is acutually one of my better friends on the team, we do most of the same races. We were going to give him a ride to the race last weekend and Sam and I were joking that he is closer in age to our 7 year old then he is to us. |

I don't think there are really any lanes in the congested parts of NYC...cars, buses, taxis, bikes. They all kind of mix in together. The cyclists that I have seen in the touristy parts of NYC are some crazy SOBs. Weaving in and out of traffic, often without helmets.

No running the rest of the week, some wicked prolotherapy in that 2nd met and the plantar (oooh so fun), and a spanking for not doing a better job of keeping my left calf looser. I'm throwing myself a party. |
