Champion  5522   Frisco, TX |  Subject: RE: Team 2 - June ChallengeArtemis - 2010-06-03 3:50 PM I made it to the pool today!! I think it's been over a year since I swam. My arms forgot how to do it and were really sore by the end. Totally lost my fitness, but I think it will come back quickly. Good job Jen! Everytime I layoff from swimming, its like learning how all over again when I start back... |

Don't think of me as a beauty queen or supermodel, but the image should certainly cleanse the retinas after ashort33's post! I don't know if anything can purge that image. It might be permanently burned into my retinas. LOL -its horrible isn't it... I think I just found my Halloween costume for this year LOL! |

Anyone that goes out in public dressed like that should be arrested at the very least. |

You don't like "Team 2?"  I'm still finalizing my goals (just switched training plans), but I should have that by the end of the day. Any ideas for a name? It has a certain "ring" to it... As far as names - anything except "June Bugs" - don't know why, but that name drives me crazy... I even have June Bug pictures for a team table. Ok I went to google 'June Bug'.. not sure what they are but they look a lot like Christmas Beetles |

| Extreme Veteran 503 Central Iowa | Subject: RE: Team 2 - June Challenge OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG!!!!!!11!1!1! Okay. So I posted earlier today that was going to go biking this evening, but that I was not going to work on my challenge goal of getting my short route (aka oasis route, aka 15-mile route) under one hour. Instead I wanted to go on a long ride and explore. Well, the route I took went to the oasis, then up through a couple towns, out and back on a crushed limestone trail, back through those towns, to the oasis, and then back home. Get this! My time from home to the oasis was 27:30. That's good, and I almost turned around right there to try to get home in under an hour. But what if I didn't make it? Then I would have given up my long ride and not made the oasis goal. I decided that I have the whole month ahead of me, I should just enjoy the ride I had planned. But… On the way back I stopped and checked my time at the oasis. 1:52:45. Of course I recorded my time when I got home. 2:24:19. That means it took me 31:34. Add that to my home-to-oasis time and its only 59:04 total! That means I met my to-oasis-and-back-sub-one-hour goal... with an extra 1 hr 25 min ride in the middle! |
