Evondo's Group - CLOSED! (Page 210)

Kenott - 2010-09-23 8:50 AM 10 years ago today I managed to trick this amazing women with two little boys into marrying me.  I'm not sure how I pulled it off but 10 years and 3 little girls later I couldn't be happier with our big family.

Keri HOPEFULLY will be getting some MRI news that we can work with today!  She is heading that way now with me holding down the fort.

I AM RACING SUNDAY!  Numbness be damned - I am full speed ahead on my bike now.  The TRI bike felt great last night and I will ride again for a bit on Friday to make sure I remember how to make the pedals turn.  No aggressive time goals just hoping to get through this first oly (everything is a PR).  The swim is odd for an olympic in that it's 2 loops with a 100m jog across a beach to jump back in the water for loop #2.  The good news is I get a tiny break from swimming, the bad news is the HR might peg if I am not careful on the transition to loop 2.  They tossed in a stadium ramp (like one you would find at nearly all football stadiums) in the 10k.  We get to run up in circles and then down somewhere during the run - RD gets creative in Houston to create hills (he had the field go over a large bridge 3 times in an oly earlier this year).  I can't wait.

2 dozen pink roses - check
Anniversary card - check
Anniversary present - check

Dinner with my bride tonight at the Melting Pot.  We have used this place as our "special occasion place" for awhile now.

I hope everyone has a great weekend - Good luck to Eric (maybe KK Aqua-bike) and any other racers!

I downloaded 2 songs from iTunes immediately after checking this site.

Thrice - The Melting Point of Wax
Anberlin - Godspeed

I hadn't heard these songs before and they quickly were added to the rotation.  Thought I would share.  The rest of what was listed was covered by my iPod already (for the most part).  I don't have "Holding out for a Hero" in the rotation and it hasn't been since the 80's but its there in case I have a weakness.

Kim. Buy a calender. Sucks about the date confusion, Beleive me I am THE WORST for being confused about dates, I've missed races over it....

Update...

New shoes arrived in yesterday. Nice easy 5 km this morning only rasied 2 little hotspots on my arch, should be good to go by next week in them full time.

I spilled diesel on my old ones about a month ago and the liners melted, I wear Stabil Cs wides in a 12.5 and they need to be special odered from my shop. (Zappo's has been out for months). So I have been running in old busted Nike. and riding the trainer. Vegas is up in the air as sitters sre balking at our boys. The River I am suposed to be fishing in 8 days has flooded 25' above high water mark and washed out the only road in, highways are saying 3 months to next spring to get it repaired. On the plus side it is now in the mid 80's this week, just in time for me to have put away my summer gear...

Tuscon, San Diego, Houston, Georgia all are looking better now. Even New York (Just cuz Kelli's Cookies are SOOO Good)

KeriKadi - 2010-09-30 9:23 AM Hey guys, I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and inspires, it's been a trying week for sure.

The good news is I am on day 4 of no swelling, so my left ankle no longer looks like it's trying to compete with EvDs cankles - believe me I was giving him a run for his money and it was NOT pretty!

Hopped on the trainer last night for the first time in a week and it felt fine and no residual pain today so that is good news.

In a holding pattern for the next several days so I could use your healing thoughts and patient vibes - I am NOT a patient patient.
