I just realized that it is just about 10:30 and my angry music is a little loud.  We live in military housing and our unit is a duplex.  Our neighbors have a baby.  I should turn it down.  That would be nice of me.  Huh, but I'm not real nice and my hubby outranks them by a lot.  Oh well, it's Christmas, I turned it down.  What a giver I am!

ETA:  TOPPAGE.  This is my night to be on top!!

Hmmm, I'm not sure.  I know that there is a sprint to oly plan for silver members here.  Not sure what else is out there.  I probably should start looking at training plans too huh?  I keep thinking I have plenty of time but the tri season will be here before we know it!

chartierm22 - 2008-12-12 10:07 PM Ok so back to summer tri's, I thinking a sprint end may and one at end of june, then there are a few middle to end of Aug that could be either sprints of olys.  Do you think this is enough time between to go from sprint to oly?

I hope so, that is my plan too.  Then I am throwing a 70.3 in there for good measure too.  I hope.  Maybe.  We'll see.

Oooh, maybe one day, how many seasons have you been doing tri's?

Ummm, 2008 was my first.  I'm a bit ambitious! Or stupid.  I'm going with stupid!

It's not stupid. 2008 was not only my first tri season, but I just learned to swim in may 2008. And I'm doing an IM in 09. It all depends on what you have the time for really.

Morning Vixens. Had a nice little race this morning, I met up with and ran with Wally as well as my friend Jonah (jmk-brooklyn here on BT). It was F R I G I D. And in true Kristin style, I got drunk last night and had a raging hangover after a lovely 4.5-5 hours sleep. Needless to say, I didn't set any PRs today! But we had a good time and were able to run and chat together the entire way. I'm waiting for a class to end at the pool, then I'm off for a short swim. Hope everyone has a great Saturday!

Yeah, it was nice to finally meet up with the famed Styrofoam-wine girl. :-)

The hills were hard for me as I have only been running on the flat track, so it was nice to have a couple of people to help drag my butt along.

Kristin - looks like my chip didn't register at the start, so my official time is aobut 4 mins slower than what we ran. But according to my watch, our splits were consistently 30 seconds faster on each mile. That actually makes for a great workout. Glad we met up.

Hi Vixens!

I tried to put a tree up today.  Really, I did.  It is just not meant to be!  I go to Lowe's.  I find one I like.  Buy it, come home, put it up.  Fluff it and arange all the branches.  Rearranged my furniture.  Place the tree in the corner.  Plug it in.  Good to go!  Kid's decorate it.  Kid's are done.  Nice.  All of a sudden, the lights on the top go out.  Seriously?  I fiddle with them for about an hour before I give up.  I undecorate the tree, take it apart and put it back in the box.  Back to Lowe's.  Return it.  Come home.  It is just not meant to be! 

I'll try again tomorrow!

So Beth - you're doing the Manahattan Half end of January?

I may have to do it just so I can add another BT'er to my "finally met" list.

You ain't kidding about the tear-jerker stories. I only saw the beginning (DVR'd the rest of it) and it was all about the intense emotional stories. It does feel rather overwhelming at times when I think I'll be doing that next summer.

The kiddos and I just finished watching it a bit ago.  They really enjoyed watching it with me. Nice family time.

Stupid piece of crap tree!  I am thinking at this point in the season, we'll end up with a little evergreen bush and call it good!

LOL The first year we had a tree we didn't have many ornaments either so we used a whole lot of candy canes.  It looked pretty at least
