Yanti & Salty Straight-Up Ridiculous Manatees Part 5 - FULL (Page 21)

Had a nice lunchtime run - funny on this Fink program I feel like I'm not doing enough, I suppose coz the last time I was training was for HIM so was at the end of that and putting in lots of hours and km's.  Last week I totalled 9 hours not too shabby but feels a long way from an IM!!! 

I'm using the competitive program for the bike, swimming I do my thing and running do the intermediate with a bit of Jeff Galloway thrown in!

Feel a bit more emotionally balanced this afternoon, something bothering me but it's the same thing that keeps bothering me and some weeks i can deal with it and others I can't - this is a can't week! ha!

Squad tonight - I'm not looking forward to it, got to put little Robbie back in his place - flattered mate that you are interested but I'm married.  Off you pop.

Well done Salty,

7th Overall when you were sick??? Dang it your good.

Only time I came 7th - there were 7 in my AG!

With my finishing skills, i would have probably come in 8th if there were only 7 in my AG

And she's crying again!

squad - tough tough tough but good - had to go out of my slow lane too busy and I had to lead the next lane!  Work out follows - and on the very upside, Robbie didn't show so I can delay that little tete a tete for another few days.

cdban66 - 2012-09-10 6:17 AM Hello All, I hope you are well. Congrats Tracy on your race! And Kate. And Adrienne. And all those that raced this weekend. A big thank you to this whole group. It is funny, I have believed for a while that we need to take something positive from each person we meet, from each interaction we have with one another. I was going back through some posts to catch up this morning and was reminded of the good in people, of the kindness and love that all of you have. Then I started checking out people's logs and such and I was truly touched by the toughness you all show in the face of life, by the love you show for your family, and the support you show each other. Be it for your family or your friends, you all live out the idea that we need to support each other, no matter what is going on. You truly are examples of the person that I try to be. This group is consistently a joy to be a part of and a shining example of my belief. Thank you again!

And she's crying again!

Well then, my job is done here

Ah, DubSix ... ever making the pretty girls cry.

Love you LOTS, {MELON PRESS} and thank you for being a Manatee light and hope amongst us. I prayed for you and your wife this morning. It looks like you are richly blessed indeed!

Hi, I have a disgusting picture to share, if someone's offended I'll take it down (or we'll just nicely move on to the next page ) ... it's like a "look at my road rash" type of thing.

Went swimming with my piglet friend from LA Jim and my sister yesterday ... got slaughtered by sea lice! (baby jellyfish) this is after lots of steroids and Benadryl, too. It's disgusting, terribly itchy and burning, and ... well, just blech!

No, I was NOT skinnydipping, sorry to disappoint you. They swarm into your suit and get trapped against the skin, then they unleash their fury. So I've got this bikini-shaped rash of welts! kinda funny actually, if it weren't me, right now.

Feeling low, you still DO awesome!

CONGRATULATIONS SALTY!!!

Podium girl and swim PR -- yip yip yip yip yip!!!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS KATE!

Youch!!!!!!!! I guess there are some benefits to following the black line lap after lap after grueling lap.

I'm trying not to claw my own boobs and buttcheeks off right now.

I'm definitely in a pool for the rest of the week!

Oh my gosh, Yanti, that looks terribly uncomfortable!!!  hope it heals up quickly.

Quick n' dirty race report:

Yooooowwwwza! I thought my ring worm was bad (which, it was) but this is awful!!!

Um Sea lice sounds way worse than baby jellyfish.

did you make this public?  It won't let me in!

That does not look like fun.

Even stuffed to the gills with 'roids and Benadryl, I'm itching and burning like a mangy hyena on fire ... I had the brilliant idea of making an oatmeal/baking soda paste.

OMG that feels so good ... unfortunately, it looks like a bowl of oatmeal exploded in my bedroom. All over me, bedspread, floor, bag ... I kinda forgot how, um, well, mushy the stuff is.

Oh and of course Biscuits started eating it off me ... crazy cat. I know she'll eat anything but kitty kibble is expensive so she's getting oatmeal with baking soda from now on!!!

That worked and it also confirmed for me that my best 5k (22:xx) is worse then your "sick" one.
