Champion 7546 Santa Cruz, California | Subject: RE: US West Team - May "President's Cup" challenge Triathlynne - 2008-05-25 9:48 PM HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a race tomorrow and I am NOT going to be able to sleep for excitement! It feels great digging out all my race stuff, checking off my list, brining my own cap - says USA on it just for Memorial Day! I AM STOKED! I'm also planning to buy the wetsuit I rented. $200 is NOT bad for a Blue Seventy Sleeveless is it? Oh my oh my oh my. It's like Christmas! I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL Memorial Day! I am ALMOST done with the challenge too and after tomorrow I will have ridden 150 miles on my new bike. HAHAHHA.
Off I go skipping through the tulips. By the way, last week was a full moon. This week the painters are in. No wonder I felt like crap. Hope I wasn't too much of a butthead. nahhhhhhhh.....no buttheads here....GOOD LUCK ON YOUR RACE...go get em girly! |

I think i'm swallowing water? But after a long continuous swim i'm too bloated to even run...i literally have to relieve this bloated feeling through slow movements and stretches (fart) for about 30 minutes until my stomach relaxes and i can continue my workout or eat. Any helpful points? |

Hey! Enjoy your birthday! Have fun and be safe Thanks! Great job on the race Lynne! They've opened the outdoor pool here at the hotel so I'm going to go for a swim on my tether haven't done that awhile. I did get a short run in last night too. It was dusk by the time we got out there though and the bugs were thick. Nothing like some fresh gnats for dessert yuck! |

Elite 3494 Renton, Washington | Subject: RE: US West Team - May "President's Cup" challenge Bloating while swimming? Wow. I dunno. I usually blow out under water then inhale on the way up but I make sure my head is turned way up. Running makes me feel bloated, extremely. Last night on the home I could not stop farting. It's terrible. I know it sounds disgusting but I want to know what causes it. I didn't over eat or anything like that. Pain in the arse, or stomach. Hope you get it sorted.
I want to thank whoever has been updating my totals. Really, you're the best. |
