TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing Around (Page 33)

Happy Birthday, Monica! Hope it's a great one

Hey Elaine.  How was your race?  Did you crush it, demolish it, and otherwise make it your bi&(h?

TW

2:33, so basically, yes, I did

Great race!

Do you know where that will put you on the Army Tri Team?

Happy wednesday TAN..............Random stuff

My cold is MUCH better and I feel high on one aleve cold and sinus................God I am a light weight with meds

If I am not exhausted at the end of the day I might do something crazy like ride the trainer

1/2 my pts are not showing up

I'm bored

Proud Father Moment:

Yesterday my 5 yr old learned how to climb a tree without any help! That is all he wants to do now is go climb trees. Only problem is that he has not yet mastered the "how do I get down" part of tree climbing. One step at a time...

I'd need to drop about 16 minutes to make it with the girls that applied this year. Yes. I said minutes.

I'm doing one more Oly in May. I think I have a faster run in me. Not 15 minutes faster... that'll take another year or two to get there.

I have a "telepresence" interview in a few hours (changed from in-person, VP is stuck in another city). I will walk into an empty conference room at the employer's offices and push a button for the VP to appear from another city. I'm intrigued - and nervous. I guess my shoe choice was not as important as I thought this morning...

Got my bracket filled out.  As a sentimental favorite, I have Wichita going probably ONE game too far, but what the heck.   I like picking surprises.  I have Mich St winning the whole thing as a #4...

Well they do make methamphetamine from cold medicine

Shoes, like fancy underwear, can just be that extra confidence boost

Gravity will help teach him, one way or another

I was part monkey at that age, too.. climbing every tree in our yard.  We had some pretty tall maple's, too.  He'll figure it out.

That is some seriously awesome work, Elaine!  Bike & Run are the two easiest places to make up time.. .but, you're right, getting down into that 2:15:00 range is TOUGH.  Basically, you gotta absolutely smoke the bike, then run 6:30's.  You can definitely do it, though!

Panties, shoes, confidence.  Smile?  Good luck on the interview, Lisa!

Yup. It's run focus time. I'm excited. I like running. I like biking and swimming, too. 

A girl on the team said she went from a 2:35 to a 2:09 in two years just by being focused and consistent. I can believe it.

I believe it, too.   I can only dream of times like that right now.  Sub-2:10 sure does sound nice, though!

Days like that are why you become an engineer.  I know if feels great.

It's the first day of Spring.  We should sacrifice a virgin if we could find one.

Mini poll.  How should TAN commemorate Spring?

A) Do something triathlete-y if we can find our gear.

B) Wear green and pinch someone.  We are mostly a little slow.

C) Play Stravinski's Rites of Spring on the stereo really loud and make humping noises to entertain the neighbors.

Your suggestion?

I would like to believe this is real, but there are so many internet hoaxes.  Is this the Connecticut version of crop circles?
