I can't believe I am on a team with Bill again--one of the finest bikers and straight-up finest men on BT--

{{{MELON PRESS}}}

Afternoon westys. I've just got back from a ride but had to cut it short because i may have forgotton to put some chain lube on my bike and thus she squealed most of the trip...

X2....  Left me wondering how he got back from a bike ride before the sun had even risen on the West Coast.  For a second, I was evaluating my training dedication as I sat here waking up with a cup of coffee.

Hopefully, short bike ride and a swim today.  Legs are a little tired today after a 5k race with my wife yesterday.  But, the good news, I think I'm finally shaking this IT issue!!!!!

Run today for me since it is a run focused month - yeah..

Happy Monday

Okay, my goals are up.  Trying to keep my workouts fairly balanced this month or at least better balanced than last month! 

However, today is a rest day after my long run yesterday.   Unless of course I am just completely motivated to do SOMETHING this afternoon!

But then I would have to taste test them and I already had raspberry white chocolate cheesecake yesterday!  well, half a slice since I split it with DH

Okay Bill, we'll see.  But I am thinking a trip to the local bike shop instead!  But for now I have to go to work to try and save a little more money for a new bike!  See you later!

I like the idea of a team name but I don't know if I like the idea for a name so far.  Not a big fan of anything cowboy/girl related, except for maybe one thing.  Other than that one thing, we try to stay away from the "C" word (as we call it) around here.  How about t.w.i.s.t.e.r. - Tri-West Is Stompin Those Eastern Rats.  We'd better make sure we beat them though or we'd never live it down. I don't know, I'm trying to be creative here but not doing very well. Anyone else have any ideas for a team name? I'll go with whatever the team decides.

I'm enjoying the challenge forum, even though my team lost last month. It helped me stick to my goal even when I was down for part of the month after surgery.  If it weren't for the challenge I know I wouldn't have stuck to my goal and I wouldn't be ready for my first race coming up this season.
My main goal for the month is to step up my swimming, although I am also stepping up my running and biking and hoping to shed a few pounds too.  I hope everyone has a good month and no one gets sick.

Hey all, I'm in too.

I need to run some errands right now, but I will give a bit of an intro later today.

Maybe I should up my swim goal and we can get some serious competition going.

I set a fairly challenging goal of 25,000 yards, but it would be a heck of a lot of fun to have a swimming duel.

Hey all! It's great to see some familiar faces as well as new ones!  I've been out of the challenges for a few months now and am ready to get back in the game.  I guess I should set some goals...Hmmm, I'll have to work on that as I have no clue what I'm doing this year...we recently decided to uproot and are about to move back to the Mainland so things have been and are getting even more hectic around here! Anyway, I am in my last week of classes so it's quite busy for me but after this week I will have lots of time to play on here ~ yeah!!! With that said, I must go work on my term paper that is due!!!

I hear ya...since I stopped working my computer time and email catch up time has been significantly reduced!!
