Well, it's a good thing I decided to find all my stuff at around 4:00.  I had everything except tri shorts.  WTF??  Where did they go???  I had them last week.  Today, gone.  To make matters worse, I am babysitting my nieces and nephew.  So, I had to take 6 kids to the LBS to get a new pair of tri shorts.  Grrrr!  Oh well, at least I looked when I did, the LBS closed at 5:00 and I got there just in time.  That could have been bad!

I haven't ran yet today, but went mountain bike riding on off-road trails for the first time.  That was lots of fun - especially since I came away without hurting anything   Almost wiped out into to some trees a few times.  Think I just found a new hobby that can double as good hill training on the bike.


I love mountain biking.  So much fun.  I am not good but I enjoy it.  I have a Specialized Hardrock and love it.  I'd like to upgrade eventually but don't ride enough to justify it.

ebshot - 2009-06-06 1:00 PM Also went and picked up my packet for tomorrow's race. I'm number 66. Yippee. The t-shirts were yellow. Pastel yellow. Really. Glad I upgraded to the tech shirt. It's white.


Good call on the upgrade.  I always go with the upgrade now.  I can't stand cotton anymore

Me too.  Well worth the extra $$$.

Got a 1km run today......Ok Ok, let me explain..... There was a 10km and a 5km race today, and also a 1km for kids. Since I run a Du tomorrow, not a good idea to run the longer distances so I ran the 1km with my kids. Lots of fun.
Practiced transition today so I am ready for tomorrow.....well I think!!!

Wow - 6 kids to the LBS right before closing time.  Good job on relaxing a bit before the race!    This time tomorrow you will definitely deserve some relaxation and celebration time.

Evening taser addicts! 

I'm so jealous of everyone racing tomorrow.  Three more weeks until my race!  Um, wait, only three weeks????  Yikes!

I am really enjoying the sun today.  Going to get another run in tomorrow.

Plus the occasional adrenaline rush (as those trees pop up) should help you burn a few extra calories....

Actually, it sounds like fun.

ebshot - 2009-06-06 1:01 PM I guess I should get my stuff together for tomorrow. I wonder where my race belt is. Hmmmmmm.


Lucky most of my gear is still in my bag from last weekend.  The anal person in me will still unpack and repack everything to make sure it is still there though


I hear you. I pack, check, and recheck everything a million times... I was also one of those test takers who brought sixteen #2 pencils and three calculators to every exam....

At least the 6 kids didn't demand that you buy them all new bikes....

Not only do I recheck my bag multiple times, I also set 3 alarms even though I hardly ever need any of them.

I'm sensing a theme amongst our team here today and for once it doesn't involve food, tasers, or alcohol.
