Anyone have any century/metric century plans to recommend?  Unfortunately, BT doesn't have any.

Welllllll, I survived Texas (or did Texas survive me??)

Forkin' crazy stuff, SXSW is.

For example, I was at a show, got elbowed in the face, got a massive bloody nose, was rushed backstage, given ice for my face and a bunch of sushi and then the band came back and hung out with me and we took pictures. Wait, what? Yeah, that happened.

Also, VERY strange, so I took this picture a long time ago while running in Seattle because I thought it was weird as hell:

But then, the minute we parked our rental car in Austin I saw THIS parked behind us:

That's when you know shyte is gonna be crazy. Apparently they had lost the bowling trophy I guess.

Anyway, Here I am, sitting on someone's gold bike...Yes, I am wearing a bolo ties. I was trying to fit in.

Well, I booked my massage appointment Undecided. I explained my training situation to her, and my hesitation to get a massage, and the fact that I'd felt comfortable with her last summer after a race. She's seems good with all of that.

So we knew that taking care of my dad's household, personal, and business affairs was going to be a shytestorm ...

The 15th was his death and funeral day, and the three days since have been packed to the hilt, taking up everything my bro, sis, and I have got ...

My sister comes into my room tonight when we've settled down, gone to bed etc. and asks,

"Have you written your race report yet?"

I suppose it is a Sherpa's duty to remind a triathlete of the REALLY important things in life

I'd write more on my race report (at least it's been well started, and yes, highly pictorial of course) ... but there are Pop Tarts downstairs.

So is it still considered streaking if you take one day off? I've been running every day for last 2 weeks now but I still take one day off just to make sure I'm not over doing it. I'm still just so nervous about that IT Band

lol nope, but take that day if you need it. Streaking is worth nothing if you injure yourself.

Sorry but no.  It must be continuous for it to be a streak.

Well, I'm not chancing it. I'll continue with my 1 day off for now. Maybe after Galveston. I'm going to start building this week now that I got through Athens Sprint. Hopefully I can work up to at least an 8 miler before Galveston just to give me confidence I'm healed

Yup, staying caught up 'round the manatee thread is a toughie.  I try to recap but always miss something so I won't even try today, but I gotta say I *heart* Scooby!!  Such a cutie!

Forkin' crazy stuff, SXSW is.

For example, I was at a show, got elbowed in the face, got a massive bloody nose, was rushed backstage, given ice for my face and a bunch of sushi and then the band came back and hung out with me and we took pictures. Wait, what? Yeah, that happened.

What??? That's crazy. So funny.

And cool about hanging out with the band. I hope your nose is better.
